Moscow-Sana
Russian State Duma MP Ivan Teterin stressed that the launch of the 61st session of the Damascus International Fair is an important indicator of Syria's victory as it proved to the whole world its ability to protect its independence and safeguard its sovereignty.
"The participation of dozens of countries in the events of the exhibition increases its importance and is an indication that national efforts will be directed towards reconstruction and the completion of development," Teterin told SANA in Moscow today.
Teterin pointed out that the reconstruction of Syria has become a reality as work began in various cities and towns in Syria, with the help of companies of friendly countries of Syria, especially Russian companies.
Teterin stressed the failure of US plans to target Syria, saying that Washington's public call for a boycott of the Damascus International Fair and the threat of sanctions against companies participating in this exhibition reflect this failure.
The Damascus International Fair was opened yesterday in its 61st session under the slogan (From Damascus to the World) with the participation of 1700 local and foreign companies from the public and private sectors representing 38 Arab and foreign countries with bookings exceeding 100,000 square meters for the first time in the history of the exhibition.
