Syria will be represented by President Ahmed al-Sharaa at the G7 summit in France, marking the country's first participation in this event.

Syria will participate in the G7 summit in France, scheduled between June 15-17, as an invited country, represented by President Ahmed al-Sharaa. This is the first time Syria has taken part in such a summit since the group's establishment in 1975.

The invitation was handed to the Syrian Minister of Finance, Yisr Barnieh, during recent financial discussions in Paris. Syria's participation will focus on its role as a "potential strategic hub for supply chains," in the context of the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, which has affected maritime transport.

After 14 years of civil war, Syria is seeking to rebuild its economy, although attracting foreign investment remains a challenge, despite the easing of sanctions. This participation could mark an important step in restoring Syria's international relations.
