Syrian Economy

The Syrian economy has faced significant challenges, especially due to the ongoing civil war that began in 2011. Before the conflict, Syria was known for its agricultural production and oil resources. However, war has destroyed infrastructure, disrupted trade, and led to widespread poverty. International sanctions have further complicated recovery efforts. As a result, many Syrians struggle with high unemployment and inflation. While some areas are attempting to rebuild, the overall economic situation remains fragile, heavily reliant on foreign aid and remittances from Syrians living abroad. The path to recovery is slow and uncertain.
