Damascus and Beirut commit to Mediterranean-Gulf railway
Syria and Lebanon have collaborated to develop a new roadmap aimed at revitalizing and advancing their rail and land connectivity, with the goal of boosting regional trade. The plan includes linking the Lebanese Port of Tripoli to the Syrian city of Homs, extending over five years to connect Syria with neighboring countries such as Jordan, Iraq, and Turkey. Additionally, special attention is given to the Saudi interest in completing the trilateral linkage between Syria, Jordan, and Turkey. Soon, the border crossing at Abou Diab between Lebanon and Syria will be opened, and the capacities of Beirut and Tripoli ports will be expanded to facilitate trade movement, creating an environment conducive for investment by Arab and international companies. The plan affirms that enhanced connectivity fosters economic growth and underscores the importance of political stability to attract further investments.
