Dubai-Sana
An Emirati delegation from the Sharjah Chamber of Commerce and Industry visited today the Syrian pavilion at Expo 2020 Dubai, within the framework of international interest in Syrian participation and the desire to increase trade and industrial cooperation between the two countries.
The delegation, headed by Abdullah Sultan Al Owais, Chairman of the Chamber's Board of Directors, toured the various sections of the pavilion, including the commercial partners section, which hosts a group of Syrian companies, and was briefed on the economic and commercial opportunities offered by these companies and opportunities for cooperation between the two countries.
It was agreed to follow up on meetings with businessmen from both sides in order to enhance cooperation and develop relations between the two countries.
The delegation was accompanied by the Syrian Ambassador to the UAE, Dr. Ghassan Abbas, Eng. Khaled Al-Shama'a, director of the pavilion, Manaf Arnous, commercial coordinator, and a number of the pavilion's work team.
In a press statement, Dr. Abbas said, through our participation in the exhibition, we seek to strengthen relations between Syria and the UAE and encourage investments in both directions for the benefit of our two brotherly countries and peoples.
Earlier this month, a Syrian-Emirati ministerial meeting was held to discuss activating the meetings of the Syrian-Emirati Business Council.
The Syrian pavilion at Expo 2020 Dubai has witnessed the visit of a number of delegations from countries since the launch of the exhibition's activities at the beginning of this October.
