Turkey's Abdulkadir Uraloğlu Plans Maritime Agreement with Syria to Reactivate Airports and Restore Hejaz Railway
Dec 24, 2024, 02:19 PM
Turkey's Minister of Transport and Infrastructure, Abdulkadir Uraloğlu, announced plans to sign a maritime jurisdiction agreement with Syria. The agreement aims to establish maritime boundaries and is part of a broader action plan to revitalize infrastructure in Syria, including the reactivation of airports and restoration of railway connections. Uraloğlu emphasized the urgency of the plan, which encompasses air, rail, road, and communication services. The Turkish government intends to assist the new Syrian administration in restoring railway lines to Damascus, thereby reconnecting the two countries and reviving parts of the historic Hejaz Railway. However, diplomatic sources in Greece have raised concerns, stating that the transitional status of the Syrian government does not legitimize any agreements regarding maritime boundaries.
