2:03 pm
to reconstruct the cities, the infrastructure, the medical facilities, the education facilities, everything really. and that needs a lot of money. and that is where costs are, comes in potentially saudi arabia, the united arab emirates. so all those kinds of projects would be on the table also, of course, politically, very sensitive. still these ministration in damascus. hyattsville show a group that is considered still a terrorist organization by the united nations, united states and other countries. and there was still a lot of caution before recognizing them. so this is also something that the officials here you mentioned during the foreign minister, also the interim defense minister and the intelligence chief are here meeting with the guitar, is that all these things will be being discussed before they head on to the sharp. i'm routes and then jordan as part of this 2nd phase in their international tour. yes, indeed, stuff that is follows a flurry of diplomacy that the new administration has been conducting in recent
2:04 pm
days. yes, they are very keen to get recognized. so you had the french and the germans in damascus. and again, you know, exercising portion of because of the complexities of syria because of the complexities of the history of this group that was affiliated with all 5. the way back in the early days of the syrian war, it has a, you know, breached it, just broken those ties. but many people still cautious. there's been a change recently in the education curriculum in syria, which is raising red flags to many countries that want syria to be all inclusive, to be secular, to be inclusive of, you know, the christians, the cards, etc, etc. so it is very complicated, but the message coming out from this interim administration is that syria will be for oh, but again, like the countries you know, that include the united states that include many european countries, even turkey,
2:05 pm
even though turkey under the table does have relations with this group still considered a terrorist organization. so that is something that the interim government will be very keen to get so returned. and this for many countries means proving it certainly, and that's going to take some time. all right, stuff, things about stephanie decker reporting from here in doe hall. let's go to damascus now to ellis sally russell service dining by 1st day. we will look at some pictures a little bit earlier at the destruction in the neighborhood that you all in once a thriving hub, tell us what you can see or indeed. so if this is a sally neighbor who with once asked, was bustling with people and on the outskirts of the city as caps of damascus. but now it has been reduced to uh, to the troubles by the regime and its forces. so this place is just the only 5
2:06 pm
side, it's a few miles away from damascus. and you can see that the level of the destruction here. so is the residence here or seeing that since the clashes have stopped in 2017 on that had been bears to come back so they would not love to come back. i hear you can see right behind me still some of the time it is coming on this or they have children to the play in the problems here. and that's most is a part of my suit mosque. and it's of course, of course, a start to be mindful of what has happened here. around the mosque was heavy inhabitants and there were multi story buildings right here. some of them had been destroyed by the war. but those that remains in 2022. the for the vision from the, the specialist as brought that i'm a hate, i sat, they came here and they destroyed the raft by the boat doors or so down to brooklyn
2:07 pm
and be asked about the raisins. what was the plan or destroying these anti region leveling? down this entire region with the bulldozers, they say well they were planning to turn these area into a minute to resume into the military facilities. so here still, we will see some of the houses that their house damaged, have damaged in our families that are leaving in these houses that any time cooled. collab. soviets talking about home that has of housings tones of the robin here for the war. there were was roughly around 124000 residents leaving here. but now just the few families they got back here and most of them just pop their the shortest ads. so
2:08 pm
on december 8. so when you stay in the city center around may a square or the batch of square, you'll see that there is a sense of normalcy. but once you start to drive a couple of miles away out of the center, damascus. then what you see is just destruction, destruction and more destruction. so you come to less of the destruction, you're going to use the hotel, you go to do my, you got to do that. these are the neighborhoods that we're hosting. more than a 1000000 people. and they have been cost of bones level down by the tags by the baby is crafts not only by the redeems class, had to cope this battle bombs but by russian. it won't documents, and of course they diminish as if we're back by rand news as well. yeah. so now you
2:09 pm
can easily say that almost as high as population. they have left the edge this areas, but now they have a hope they're coming back that some of the residency in that particular this area was famous with this oil is and 6. now they say it's time for them to rebuild and to have the toys and steve's back. but perhaps it's going to take years to get to that in date and everything that you're saying and showing us shows just how critical it is to rebuild serious economy. and have western sanctions removed in the that is that one of the most sticking points now in syria, on december 8, i got his duty on today. that's show us at the left the country and started the from the news of the comforter down to the south, damascus, which i have seen in sibley. then instead of kept in mind that no man in country
2:10 pm
who and then in uh in how much then in homes, then in damascus, what you see is just the structure of your see and how's off this town neighbor, who's after neighborhoods being company needs a level down and according to some of the reports, the most domestic ones are seeing that that's at least $150000000000.00 is needed to the bill of syria. but some of the reports suggest that actually, at least if need to be like at least $400000000000.00 needs to be invested in city of to rebuild this. 15 years of this civil war have destroyed much of the companies report economy destruct. it's the whole, whole, whole, or destroyed the whole, the 1st structure of the country. and there was caesar the sessions, enforced by the international community. now that even the solution here is saying,
2:11 pm
well, the reason that the will have impose the sanctions because there was a brutal regime. but now that the regime is gone and it's time for the world to remove the sections. if the world continues with this section, the new administration saying is going to be a punishment for the syrians court already suffering to months from the destruction of mass destruction from the poverty. and this is a picture, a true picture of what is left from bush, alyssa and this country means that investments needs the international aid. and of course, the new adjacent say that immediately they need the removal of these sanctions. but so far, what do you have? who is particularly from the west of politicians visiting damascus. they have conditions, and they say, well, we need to see actions for them to mask us before doing that. so it seems that the world is not involved. well for you moving to sections yes. yep. okay,
2:12 pm

and the people inside these building are being ordered sharply to evacuate immediately before a d r. before they get bomb. then this is part of a pattern that we've seen in the past that people are told to exactly, to, from one area to another by the end of being bombed in another area. so the few right now because of many of the failures, many of the misinformation and full narrative bite is very military people are human. and now whether to leave these designated site, spite is really military and go to another one that is it going to be safe for them to question a 50 cube 3 surface thing. as that many been said in the past to prove that many of these narratives were falls contradictory and vague. in fact, many people end up being killed inside these designated areas, but up to 30 hours of this morning, they are start to continue to happen and continue to cause further civilian
