Minister of Economy and Foreign Trade Adib Mayyaleh said that despite all circumstances, the Syrian economy remained firm thanks to the steadfastness of the people and the army and their cohesion with their leadership.
Meeting Archbishop of Nova Justiniana and All Cyprus Chrysostomos II and the accompanying delegation on Saturday, Mayyaleh referred to the huge damage suffered by the Syrian economy due to the terrorist war against Syria and the unjust economic blockade imposed on it.
The Minister called upon the Archbishop and the accompanying delegation to convey the true image of the situation in Syria and the suffering of the Syrian people from the crimes of terrorist organizations which are backed by Turkey, the United States and the Zionist entity. For his part, Archbishop Chrysostomos II affirmed solidarity of Cyprus and all peace-loving forces with the Syrian people who are the symbol of steadfastness and resistance against the evil forces.
He concluded by saying that his visit aims at conveying the true image of what is going on in Syria to the countries of the European Union.
