This. When asked for advice by NGO workers heading into Damascus (or anywhere Syria tbh) I suggest they challenge everything they see. Over years of frustration and limitation usual practices have moved. Ask why. Challenge them. Bring fresh eyes and humanitarian principles. twitter.com/evilgeniuspub/…

Need for significant capital investment due to war damage, high conflict and sanctions risk (pre-war, Syria exported 95% of its crude to Europe), looming depletion, as well as likely unfavorable government take rates - all in low oil price context - make recovery a daunting task.

Large fields around Deir Ezzor (Al-Omar etc - grey) receive lots of media coverage: Their rapid development was essential for Syria's fiscal transition in immediate post-Soviet era. But production has long been declining and extractive infrastructure suffered heavy war damage. pic.twitter.com/3uswdrAR1Y

Accounting for 23.6% of GDP and 37% of exports, the oil sector was a pillar of Syria's pre-war political economy. In this latest installment of our 'Economy and Recovery' series, we look at the state and prospect of Syria's crude industry.

Yesterday Syrian Foreign Minister Walid Muallem announced #Syria was amending "Law 10" to increase the period of time property owners have to prove ownership if their land is tagged for development from 30 days to 1 year. The move follows extensive criticism of the law.

We discussed some of this back in Issue #2: Reports by the UN panel of experts tasked with monitoring the North Korea sanctions regime suggest the DPRK is back at it - helping the Assad regime rebuild its chemical weapons program. twitter.com/tobiaschneider…

Absent international reconstruction aid, Syria's post-war stability will rest on what remains of its domestic economy. Our first Sector Spotlight takes a closer look at the state and recovery of the country's electricity sector.

We've been covering the likely fate of opposition-held southern Syria since Issue #1. Our @SyriaContext Backgrounder offers a brief history of Israeli "red line" diplomacy reg the South - as well as its pragmatism in actually managing an imperfect situation on the ground. twitter.com/SyriaContext/s…

Fortunately @tobiaschneider and @ejbeals had the idea to create Syria in Context (@SyriaContext ), a broader approach to Syria than just the military conflict. Subscribing is $160/ year or $15/month, which is quite affordable. twitter.com/JensHittrien/s…

With Western reconstruction money unlikely to be forthcoming, Syria's stability post-war will hinge primarily on the performance of its domestic political economy. @SyriaContext analyzes some of the less-than-sexy indicators. twitter.com/SyriaContext/s…
