The President also called for sustained attention to Aleppo’s reconstruction and development, urging that charitable and development initiatives continue. Al-Sharaa highlighted Aleppo’s contributions to Syria’s blessed revolution, stressing that his remarks referred to both the city and its surrounding countryside.
