The Syrian Future Movement welcomes the historic national step of reclaiming Tartus Port from the Russian company “Stroytransgaz,” returning the port’s revenues entirely to the state and the people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Syrian Future Movement, following the official decision issued by the Port’s General Authority on Monday, 2025\/01\/20, as reported by Al-Watan newspaper, awaits another decision clarifying the status of port workers under the investment contract.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Syrian Future Movement believes that the decision to reduce customs fees will enhance the port’s competitiveness with neighboring countries’ ports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Syrian Future Movement recognizes the significance of Tartus Port, as it is Syria’s second-largest seaport, with an annual capacity of approximately four million tons and around 20,000 containers. The port also includes a logistical support center for the Russian Navy, established in 1971 under a bilateral agreement with the Soviet Union. This step symbolizes the nationalization of the Suez Canal in 1956.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
