Saudi Arabia allows special travel permits for business visits to Syria
Saudi Gazette report RIYADH — The Saudi Embassy in Damascus has announced the introduction of special travel permits for businesspeople and investors from both Saudi Arabia and Syria, paving the way for renewed economic engagement and investment exploration between the two countries. The move marks a notable shift in bilateral economic relations, following Saudi Arabia's 2015 decision to ban travel to Syria due to deteriorating security and political conditions at the time. This latest development coincides with the visit of a Saudi business delegation to Syria over the past two days, where they met with Syrian President Ahmad Al-Sharaa and other senior officials. The permits are expected to facilitate broader investment cooperation amid warming diplomatic ties and the ongoing normalization of official relations between Riyadh and Damascus.

Saudi minister calls for global reform, highlights Vision 2030 as G20's fastest development driver
Saudi Gazette report NEW YORK — Saudi Minister of Economy and Planning Faisal Al-Ibrahim affirmed that Vision 2030 has made Saudi Arabia the fastest-advancing G20 nation in sustainable development indicators over the past decade. Speaking at the 2025 UN High-Level Political Forum in New York, Al-Ibrahim emphasized the urgency of deep, action-driven reforms as the world approaches the 80th anniversary of the United Nations. 'Progress alone is not enough,' he said, warning that development confined to intentions fails to drive real change. He stressed the need for a sharper global focus on urgent priorities, with impact-oriented strategies that deliver tangible, sustainable outcomes. Revisiting a call Saudi Arabia made at last year's forum, Al-Ibrahim reiterated the Kingdom's proposal for a new development framework built on three principles: channeling resources toward the most pressing challenges, designing scalable and adaptable solutions across national contexts, and grounding decisions in robust, evidence-based data. He announced that Saudi Arabia has launched a new national sustainable development blueprint rooted in local innovation, citing the Medina Sustainable Development Atlas as a global model. The atlas covers all 17 neighborhoods in the city, offering policymakers access to detailed, scenario-based data to guide strategic planning. Al-Ibrahim pledged continued collaboration with global partners to turn commitments into outcomes and ambitions into reality, adding: 'What the world lacks today is not ambition, but focus, cooperation, and bold implementation.' He concluded by affirming that achieving results is within reach—urging stakeholders to build on past progress with renewed momentum.
