Bags of cash and rolling blackouts: inside Syria’s shaky economic recovery | The Dip Podcast

Syria is entering a new phase as US and EU sanctions are rolled back and an IMF mission reports the first signs of economic recovery, helped by returning refugees and slowly rising investor confidence. Yet reconstruction needs run into the hundreds of billions of dollars, with destroyed homes, damaged roads and landmines blocking people from safely returning to their towns and farms. DW correspondent Aya Ibrahim explains which sanctions remain in place, how life is changing in Damascus and beyond, and why Syria’s political divisions and governance problems still threaten the country’s fragile recovery. #DWdip #dwbusiness
