He highly appreciated the great and responsible cooperation of the People’s Assembly with the government to ensure ideal outcomes that take into account the dimensions of the need for stability, sustainability and integrity of legislation and the need to produce legislative instruments that meet the requirements of government work in light of the crisis, the state of war, the siege and sanctions.

The Prime Minister affirmed that the Syrian state has taken upon itself the responsibility of rehabilitating the entire national geography that has been restored and seeking to integrate it into the normal economic and social life cycle so that it will be a source of wealth and it will fulfill its national role.
Arnous pointed out that the second half of the current year will witness an improvement in the field of electrical services through increasing generating capacities and providing more quantities of fuel and gas to operate more generating capacity.
“we seek as possible as to raise the standard of living condition and improve the purchasing power of citizens through improving the economic and service production cycle in the country,” Arnous indicated.
