The Council has adopted legal acts lifting all economic restrictive measures on Syria,with the exception of those based on security grounds. The adoption formalises the political decision announced on 20 May 2025, and aims at supporting the Syrian people in reuniting and rebuilding a new, inclusive, pluralistic and peaceful Syria.
As part of the same approach, the Council has also removed 24 entities from the EU list of those subject to the freezing of funds and economic resources.
