Syrian Assembly to Hear Energy Minister Thursday
The Syrian Ministry of Energy's decision to increase the prices of petroleum derivatives by between 25% and 40% has led to widespread protests across several provinces. The protesters expressed their rejection of this measure, considering it exacerbates the people's suffering and weakens the economy, especially given the low income of employees, which does not exceed $150 per month. This coincided with the People's Assembly overseeing a session with the Minister of Energy to discuss the reasons behind the price hikes and the surrounding circumstances of the decision to raise prices, amid calls to find alternative solutions rather than relying solely on increases.
