EU Offers €175 Million Aid for Syrian Recovery
The European Union is giving Syria 175 million euros to help rebuild the country after the war.
This money will be used for things like energy, schools, and healthcare.
An EU official visited Syria to show support and hopes Syria can become a normal, democratic country again.
The EU wants Syria to control its own recovery and wants to ensure any refugees that return do so in a safe and dignified way.
It is hoped that the aid will help rebuild Syria's economy and promote human rights.
The EU announced a 175 million euro package for Syria's reconstruction.
The package will focus on sectors including energy, education, health, and agriculture.
EU Commissioner Dubravka Suica stated the aid is a "clear message" of support.
The EU wants the recovery to be Syria-owned and led, aiming for a normal democratic future.
