The decision of the Arab League to freeze the membership of Syria, and boycotted an Arab and the imposition of economic sanctions, a new concern to the owners of capital, particularly those working in the banking sector is a sector sensitive and index the most accurate in the basket of the Syrian economy and at the same time is the backbone of it, will shake the banking sector this time or that it will remain standing in the face of these sanctions.
"Commercial" shift to new partners
Resorted Commercial Bank of Syria to deal with the banks of the median after the sanctions European made against Syria was a shelter is better to shift to new partners to be able to follow the conduct of transactions of customers, particularly in relation to the subject of dealing Documentary Credits, after taking the trouble to deal directly with banks intermediate in Europe and the countries that resorted to the commercial bank is the more banks a friend such as China, Russia, India and other Arab countries has been associated with bank transactions business, but the difficulties faced by the commercial bank is the inability to provide the two currencies, Russian and Chinese, which were added to the list of exchange rates, and thus is a matter of time to start dealing with these two currencies which are bearing the differences in prices may occur as a result when you buy a currency and open letters of credit.
On the other hand and under the current circumstances of the country's bent the bank too much on giving priority in the provision of banking services, specifically the sale of the pieces, and why it affected the bank penalties imposed with lower profits than expected, in addition to restricting the bank's capital in an unprecedented way as a result of the new sanctions in a comment League of Arab States for membership of Syria, which requires the bank to work on research for system critical global alternative based on justice and lack of control by the state or bloc at the expense of others, knowing that these sanctions are not overlooking the sanctions of Foreign Trade on matters of food, pharmaceutical, but there is a difficulty facing other sectors touched by the sanctions as a sector of oil and housing sectors which received explicitly in the Code, and for the sectors not mentioned in the list of sanctions Fbasttaah Syrian commercial bank that runs its affairs.
"Real Estate" directly affected by Bank of new sanctions
Did not deny working in the Real Estate Bank Bank directly affected by the new sanctions imposed on Syria, where he was off to the Real Estate Bank transfers from abroad.
Therefore, the Bank Balambeshrh develop a new action plan for recovery again and through the provision of the required service to customers by dealing with the correspondent banks allow to open accounts in currencies other Arab, of which the UAE dirham, is still trading light in this area, in addition to attempts to start dealing in Saudi Riyals but always gets delayed by the Saudi banks, have also been opening credits with the Russian and Chinese banks to cover commercial transactions.
The Bank took new measures in order to maintain its position in the market where they issued certificates of deposit of the benefits of a high 10% for one year, 10.5% for two years, 11% for three years, as higher rates of interest payable on deposits without raising interest rates the city loans with the follow-up to provide housing loans to low-income and public sector loans and cooperative.
"Cham Bank" does not guarantee what the future is the fate.
On the other hand the development of the Islamic Cham Bank at the moment is good but does not guarantee what the future is the fate of these private banks, because in the event of sanctions, carried out on the ground, the European banking sector will be affected directly, especially if implemented in the political decision to boycott Syria.
The reason for this effect that the activities of banks is not limited to the work of individuals only, but no investment funding and projects and the movement of trade require cooperation on the Arab and not vice versa, and the Gulf investments are part of the Arab investments and it becomes the Arab position a powerful tool in the economic situation of Syria in the event of continued boycott Add to decline, which would befall the Syrian currency.
Banque "Bemo" We must seek new ways /
The Banque Bemo Saudi Fransi, has returned from the new opening credits for the benefit of the euro in addition to transfers that are taking place in other currencies Kriyal Saudi or UAE dirham towards the outside and through multiple ways.
But the only problem encountered after the imposition of new sanctions are the difficulties that stand in the customers who import raw materials for their factories in dollars, and are open Aatmadathm euro and bear the customer in this case is the fluctuation of the euro currency, knowing that the banks made products that protect the customer from the fluctuation of the currency, can any client when requesting funding be required to install the euro and the Syrian banks also help in these circumstances is the lack of exposure to the outside.
For the set of transfers in dollars, The Bank does not receive at all this new type of banking transactions, and that with the beginning of the crisis on banks to impose the central bank to Syrian banks to use its partners strategic, whether this partner Jordanian or Kuwaiti or Lebanese, or diagonally, who provided assistance within the potential of the globally available, including advice on how to shift work from the dollar to other currencies, but today and in the case the Arab States Arab League's decision to freeze its membership and not to deal with Syria and region once and must be Bank is looking at ways and new methods in order to continue Valtraja work that hit the bank loans led to a decline of 16 per cent also reduced deposits with the Bank increased by 23.9% during the first half of the year.
"Audi" the new laws in our path.
The Director Bassel Hamwi, Bank Audi Syria, that the impact of economic sanctions on Syria and the freezing of its membership in the League of Arab States affected private banks has been frozen a good part of the Syrian private banks' deposits abroad
The Hamwi that the funds deposited abroad up to more than 30% even though it was targeted sanctions against specific persons by name and not against the funds of the Syrian people but for the foreign banks, as long as Syria or banks Syria has deposits held in U.S. dollar specifically, it may believes it is better to Ijmdha even get a license from the Department of sanctions in the U.S. Treasury, and the difficulties the addendum in our path as banks Syria is the new laws imposed on us a non-lending in foreign currency, leading to continuing to move to deposit in banks and external interest rate of a few, leading to a decline in the volume of loans during the first half increased by 17.3%, in addition to the decline in bank deposits, 22.7%.
"Islamic Bank" ... less affectedthan other banks.
Bakd Abdel Qader Dweik, Director General of International Islamic Bank, Islamic banks are less affected than other banks by the current crisis being experienced by Syria and all the sanctions the European and Arab imposed on the Syrian economy, because it is a far cry from dealing derivatives and sales margin and trading in loans, as happened to many private banks, but It is dealing with something concrete and finance system and profit-sharing rather than interest and interest added or double, and that's what make them immune to a hole of debt which was signed by many banks in the world.
The Dweik that liquidity in the bank were affected at first, but indirectly because a large number of customers had withdrawn their deposits from private banks as a result of fear and uncertainty, and by the fact that Islamic banks newly in Syria and the Syrian people are unfamiliar with how to deal with Islamic banks Murabaha based Istisna participating farmers.
No effect on the Islamic banking sector.
Said Adnan Al Yousuf Chairman of the Federation of Islamic banks that all sanctions imposed on the Syrian economy does not affect the Islamic banking sector in any way that the role of Islamic banks in Syria is very large, is that the role of development in the reconstruction of the land, particularly in the private sector because it focuses attention on the Syrian economy where large companies which attract the labor force and large investments, even though the entry in the economy and the ramifications will be very limited in Syria, while small and medium-Its influence on the citizen and the market, because they are dealing with a middle-class banks.
He pointed to the existence of speculators, many are seeking to take advantage of the current situation, through remittances limited the Syrian pound to the dollar because of the unrest in the country, has seen some withdrawals from banks in lira and converted to the dollar, but the low levels did not come out of those funds outside the country, but rates are very small.
Rapid decline ...
The proportion of deposits at the Bank of Syria and Overseas 17% and declined requests for advances and the reason for this not to work to processes with large sizes as well as pressures on the banking sector from abroad, such as reduced movement of consumption and decline in the structure of deposits and shrinking foreign trade and stop foreign remittances, which accounted for half of the deposits banks almost Funding for Foreign Trade is one of the most important services provided by banks to its customers and one of their concerns essential, especially with the growing importance of foreign trade of the States, The processes of foreign trade financing through banks is important for both sides, the banks and dealers, its importance for clients is the element of safety achieved by the banks of the process through documentary credits or policyholders or money orders, and for banks The financing of foreign trade is a source of revenue both through commissions and fees collected by the provision of such service in case of full coverage of the adoption of the client, or through profits.

Assembly President craft of goldsmiths in Damascus, "George Saarji" The sales of the city of Damascus, alone of gold per day up to 15 kilograms of standard 18 and 21 carats, while the figure rises to four times in the city of Aleppo to reach about 75 kilograms of standard gold also , the figure drops to about 35 kilograms of gold daily sales in the rest of the provinces of Syria, the total sales of gold per day, about 110 kilograms, according to the newspaper "home."
And the quantities of gold in Syria between the official and the private said, "Saarji": "It is not possible to determine the amount of state-owned gold reserves, but it ruled a large amount."
But what is owned by citizens of gold resorts Saarji to the equation relative to the calculation of the average quantity, by dividing the population of Syria equally to 11 million males 11 million female women (debate) three million married at the very least, and as the bride before marriage in Syria is of gold weighing an average up to 100 grams, so we have a result of multiplying the number of married women the number of fines of 300 tons of gold, including that the average woman's dowry before the rise in gold prices at the beginning of the last decade was 200 to 300 grams for a total in this case 600 to 900 tons of gold home is the apparent view of the social privacy.
He explained that the savings of gold during the last period spent on the purchase Mobaillat and cars to be added that money for a new family of Syrian instead of saving the gold that is bought gold ounces or pounds.
The "Saarji" that the price potential to rise in all countries of the world, according to the circumstances of the whole world and not only Syria, taking into account the stability of the curve graph of prices towards the rise in many countries of the world since the months are not uncommon, pointing to the importance of reading the data well in terms of the state that are eligible for the high prices make people accept to buy gold without paying heed to the words in the context of prediction, or conclusion is not in the context of real information and installed.
And gold prices, said, "Saarji": "It is not possible to set pricing for jewelers parallel or commensurate with the official pricing, for a variety of factors, most important taxi jeweler and compensation from the drafting process, taking into account the need to work to import gold is first and foremost a strong support for any currency, including of course Syrian pound if it is not imported a regular will still get it for informal ways, and a simple calculation we find that the import includes Mobaillat and cars which consumers in a few years, but that was imported gold worth $ 1 billion up by one sentence in a year to 1.2 billion dollars. "
And the calculation of prices caliber of 18 carat gold and 21 carats, said, "Saarji": "As the 18 carat is the most popular, we keep the price a fine and divide it by the number 21 and hit number 18 so we have a price gram gold of 18 carat and the process itself apply to the rest of the bullets of gold ".

Aamaal Abu Wahid large seed potato is grown over an area of 50 dunums in Hama, Alhatalh rains during the season and mild winter temperatures and predict a profit Fair and the production of a good specification, is known for his land, as by seeking to taking care of his family ..
Abu Wahid agriculture meant the earth adores his life, some are able to build his house and educate their five children, and profits of some of the seasons has built houses for his children and married off three of them ..
Abu Wahid explanation of the circumstances of what happened to him during this season, saying: When you start planting seed potatoes events were limited and did not imagine one it will be extended to include most of the regions and provinces of the country and I was optimistic, season well in past seasons began our products are popular in some Arab and European countries and the export of agricultural products means achieve a good profit, but plenty of the peasant, but with the transmission of events to the Hama disrupted a lot of aids to the attention of agricultural land when many farmers, and mazout (fuel oil) became almost lost and access to small amounts of it means paying extra money price of a liter reached to 20 pounds and more, despite reduced government prices of 20 to 15 pounds per liter, and this increased the cost of irrigation and transport, as well as cutting roads confused a lot and access employment within the province and beyond, and shootings resulted in staying of many workers and agronomists in their homes and in some areas close pharmacies agricultural, raising the difficulty of obtaining medicines and fertilizers for applications in a timely manner ..
Abu Wahid added: With the start of harvest potato crop was hit province paralyzed as a result of cutting roads and difficult access of workers or farmers to their land, and was able to access and harvest its products and had difficulty in marketing to the outside of the province and this is why a lot of products for sale within the markets of the province and this means lower their prices to below cost and thus the loss uncertain ..
Fruits die standing
Abu Adham his story was close to what was narrated by Abu Wahid with the difference that has the orchards full of fruit trees and says the atmosphere was very appropriate for the fruit trees, and all species were promising seasons good rains were adequate and no rise in temperature during germination to fruit ripening has helped a bumper crop of fruit trees, which is known by most provinces, and this season I have tons of plums, peaches, and other Ganrk ..
According to official statistics have Hama of about 231 hectares of Ganrk produces about 90 tons and more than 800 hectares of peach produces about 300 tons and peaches more than 2400 hectares and produces more than 1000 tons, usually there are almonds, pears and other crops which include vegetables Allbeckoria choice and Kusa and Pamia, onions and other products which is famous Hama of strategic crops such as wheat, which was not affected, sugar beet, who did not suffer much because of the mild temperatures and cotton to major crops and other crops, soils in Hama of the most fertile agricultural soils suitable for production of all types and help to the moderate climate and location on the the line of stability first, second and third ..
Abu Adham said that hundreds of cars 2 ton payload was harvested from Hama of the previous seasons in a day loaded with different products to local markets or to export, but during the season remains more than 75% of the production of olives leave the tree protectors, which was within the province ..
He added: During the harvest seasons were Syrian workers moving between the provinces of Hasaka, Idlib and Daraa and Hama and harvesting seasons, but as recent events have prevented the transmission of such employment out of fear for her life ..
And gave Abu Adham an example of the price of melon that produces it to maintain more than 1000 tons that prices start to the season last year ranged from 25-35 pounds per kilogram, but during the beginning of the season were sold between 13-17 pounds and peaches was lower price for the type of good between 50 - 60 pounds, while this season did not rise for 35 pounds here and can estimate the losses of farmers, and seal Abu Adham, of course, support is not present, government agencies did not find them to protect Moasmna ..
Peas taste of gunpowder
In Daraa, the situation was more difficult and more losses this province, which started the events in the month of March was accepted by the farmers and their crops put the seed in the soil are also reassured to the season of rain missionary But no results have also painted peasants ..
Ashraf says the village Tafas: Daraa of the provinces that have become the food basket full of Syria
Because of the fertile soil and moderate climate and abundance of water and the activity of its farms, and with the start of the rainy season is encouraging increased the hopes of farmers to produce abundant crops, especially for some kinds of vegetables such as peas, beans, and later tomatoes, melons, squash, cucumbers and other seasons, which has become famous for the province and distributes its products to most provinces in addition to the export. .
Indicate official statistics for 2010 that Daraa grown material potatoes 1500 hectares and produces about 43,311 tons and zucchini 295 hectares producing 5394 tons and cucumbers and cucumbers 1262 ha producing approximately 17,000 tons and peas love watering and Baal 2220 ha producing about 3000 tons and bean love 1260 hectares producing 2,200 tonnes ..
In addition, many of these species from various other strategic crops of wheat, barley, Homs and other grains in addition to some fruit trees suited to the different nature of the area ..
However, agriculture's most famous Hawran is a substance where tomatoes are grown conservative about 2120 hectares produce about 212,600 tons ..
These products also indicates Ashraf faced poor conditions due to heavy exchange of gunfire in all areas of the province making peas, crops other as if they have acquired the taste of gunpowder, and most farmers have left the peas in the ground for Tibisha and to be a seed for next year so as to not allow them to harvest ..
He adds a lot of farmers could not interest in cultivation because of the crisis suffered by the province of Daraa, Syria, in general, Ensuring medicines, agricultural pesticides or fertilizers from pharmacies agricultural become required to pay the price in full immediately, unlike previous seasons, which was a payment which is when the harvest, and the farmer is capable of doing, as well as helped cut the roads and the closure of the region to the inability of farmers to market their crops outside the province, forcing the managed harvest to sell in the domestic markets and cheaply too often led to big losses, but the tomatoes were not affected significantly because the damage from the fields of managed peasants replanting and new Bechtel because of the mild climate and abundant rainfall was obtained a good season but not export outside did not achieve the expected price ..
God's great mercy
In these circumstances the mercy of God's great citizens, it was the winter season, especially with the beginning of the year as one of the best seasons in terms of the percentage of rainfall, as is terms of the average temperatures that contributed significantly to the existence of the production of abundant so that the consumer be obtained from any area when closure of some areas, and also so that the farmer to reap the harvest when there is calm in his area and can secure employment, but the Greens Allbeckoria cucumber, squash, tomatoes and other cannot wait and need to be picking on here and varied influences from region to region.
Agriculture, economic and political interests!
To follow up the details when you concerned had to be research into the corridors of the Ministry of Agriculture Mtaavatha of the reality of agriculture in light of the crisis in Syria since last March, especially that food security cannot jump over it or lenient with him, and when you check in the Directorate of Planning shows that its role has become associated with the development plans and appreciation of what has become of the tasks of the departments of production and marketing follow-up and situation of agriculture on the ground and to address any difficulties that may be affected by or exposed to, but the surprise is that these two Almdiritan and even others do not have any statistics about the reality of agricultural crops with the exception of the strategy, such as wheat, beets, barley, and later cotton, any queries will be directed to the ministry about the effects of the crisis response will be: the situation did not affect the agricultural sector and the focus will be on the quantities of wheat marketed to the General Establishment for Cereal Processing and Trade and the General Organization for Seed Multiplication and the General Organization for Fodder for barley ..
Interested in agriculture as well as diabetes and Balhundr marketed quantities of sugar to the Foundation.
When we asked those concerned in the Ministry of Agriculture for other crops such as potatoes, tomatoes, peas, various fruits found that those concerned do not have details on the quantities of production or marketer of interest because the Ministry of Agriculture and the main strategic crops, because these crops are strongly linked to the immune
The Syrian economy and the solidity of its political decision ..!
Despite the importance of these crops, but what about the hundreds of thousands of families that do not depend on the cultivation of strategic crops, do not need follow-up and supervision and scrutiny, particularly as the products associated with the Yumiatna and needs of food, as well as food industries, and exports processed or unprocessed also depend on the production of these varieties, This is not the real economy of Syria, ranked agricultural economy?
Or is it associated with bread and sugar only?!
Storage .. Buy and sell without statistics
General Organization for storage, and marketing is the arm of government to interfere with the positive, but its concepts are mostly related to intervene in the interest of the consumer with that they can intervene in the interest of the farmer producer of agricultural commodities and Astjerar section of its products, but the organization limit its intervention positive direct purchase from the farmer to the substance of citrus, apple Golan and sometimes interfere with the export of potatoes and tomatoes The rest of the products from the fruits and vegetables they are dealing with the mentality of the merchant according to supply and demand, however, we could not get any statistics on Astjerar institution for agricultural products, whether farmer or from the markets where we can consider this support, indirectly, and the institution does not have the figures on shopping and sales and trading difficulties for the current year, according to officials of the institution, have prevented the branches can provide management of its work for the first quarter and second quarter! ..
If the institution has been able Astjerar quantities Astjertha last year, it will be important to help farmers in such circumstances, for example, was Astjerarha 18,602 tons of potatoes and 149 tons of tomatoes and export 11,401 tons and 50 tons for export and 19 926 tons of different vegetables ..
And the institution in general can play an important role in such circumstances, through ownership of 29 units cooling and transport fleet normal and cooled up to 300 cars of different loads from 2 to 25 tons, which also has shops in all provinces, regions and even at the level of villages and neighborhoods in addition to its presence in all the local wholesale markets (cardamom) and the powers conferred by buying and selling and trading directly without any conditions or restrictions bureaucracy ..
Decline in exports
Agricultural exports of the products were not better off than other sectors and as President of the Committee exporters of vegetables and fruits, the decline was very significant for many reasons, first is the inability of concerns to work because workers cannot attend on some days, or to the inability of some traders suppliers to wander in the provinces for the purchase and selection of products from farmers ..
He added, however, there were attempts at a good merchant Syrian able to work in difficult conditions, but was able to sort and package his goods and shipped encountered a problem back by some Arab countries, for reasons mostly illogical what caused him a great loss that has led to the reluctance of a large part of traders to stop However, some export markets, which continued to receive traditional Syrian products, but intermittently and only some of the items ..
Food Security
Food security as defined by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations / FAO / as a guarantee that all people at all times on the physical and economic consumption of adequate amounts of food, safe and nutritious food to meet their needs and food preferences, so they can live a healthy life and must be achieved on three levels of individual and family and national ..
From this definition adopted by Syria in its approach to economic turns out that it relates only to the consumer and there is no interest in the product is the basis of practical food Vtzbzb prices and decline to protect food security for the consumer means a provision losses frequent the farmer and thus out of the production process, which means damage to food security ..
And do not even get to these dangerous levels of internal threat to food security must adopt policies more assertive interesting Bafilah and regard agriculture in general, both agricultural and livestock production, and is here where the role of the state in full without any liability to other parties, it may not support the farmers of wheat, beets, cotton and barley and potatoes, citrus, grapevines and olive trees at the expense of other food products, and must be balance in cases of support Valkhbz its importance is no less important for many of the nutrients provided by the rest of the agricultural products and the abandonment of the farmer it means a threat to food security and Social Workers in the field of agriculture make up about 25% of the labor force in Syria, have seen what was caused by the drought, and here of course is not necessarily support mechanisms to be similar among all the products ..
Protection institutions
Through the above information it is clear that agricultural policies are limited to plans only seem to come up in the back of the concerns of the stakeholders, except for the strategic crops, of course ..
For that to be contingency plans to protect the crop is not only a product but to protect the item because the basis for the continuation of production.
Of course, you can search for solutions to suit the farmer and the number of official bodies, but this requires dialogue and appears to be missing ..
Feature: Life getting hard in Syria as Western sanctions start to bite

DAMASCUS, Nov. 25 (Xinhua) -- There have been repetitive placatory statements made by senior Syrian officials over the past couple of weeks that the cooking gas crisis would end within few days in the country.
However, the crisis is still unsolvable and has even sent signals that the consequences of the European and American sanctions have started to rebound on the ordinary Syrians not the Syrian President and his inner circle as they have primarily meant to.
Syrians, who had endured several economic slumps in the past, have started to get used to social and economic boom in the country that has begun to take shape throughout the last ten years with the gradual transformation of the Syrian economy from its socialist system to that of an open market.
The looming economic crisis would be the biggest challenge for most Syrians after an era of affluence where consumer and luxurious goods were abundant.
A decade ago, it was not strange to see the Syrians line up and carry buckets of different colors in front of a gas distribution center. But such a scene had almost become non-existent over the past few years.
This unpleasant scene has returned to the country recently and Syrians have started feeling the heat of the EU and US sanctions imposed on the country allegedly for the government's bloody crackdown on protesters who took to streets more than eight months ago demanding reforms and later on calling for the toppling of the Syrian regime.
Syrians complain, especially in Damascus suburbs, of the shortage in diesel, which is indispensable for heating in winter, and the cooking gas.
While standing in the long line to have his buckets refilled with diesel, Hamad Marouf, 46, of Sehnaya area, just outside Damascus, told Xinhua that waiting in line to get diesel has become one of his worst nightmares.
Abu Ali, 65, with big mustache, was standing with seven buckets by his side. He told Xinhua that he has seven houses and that he needs bucket to each house.
At another area in the capital Damascus, a young teenager was sarcastic when Xinhua reporters asked him to lead them to the gas distribution center. "You came late ... if you want a gas cylinder you need to come at 6 a.m. to get a turn because people line up from 6 a.m. to 5 p.m. to get one," he said.
Some Syrian officials insist that the shortage in the cooking gas was to be blamed on some greedy distributors of gas cylinders, who hide them to raise prices and capitalize on the crisis.
Last week, Syrian Oil Minister Sufian Allaw stressed that the gas crisis in Syria would end within four days, blaming the recent shortage in gas cylinders that is essential for cooking on threats by armed groups to attack freight trains that transfer gas from the northwestern coastal town of Banias to the gas filling station in the Damascus suburb of Adra.
Allaw, speaking in an interview broadcasted by the Syrian TV, confirmed that two freight trains carrying gas arrived in Adra over the past two days to meet gas needs in Damascus, its suburbs and Quneitra, some 67 km south of Damascus.
He said the Banias train ensures 80 percent of gas needs in Damascus.
The minister pointed out that threats of assaulting trains have led to the suspension of train trips from the north to Damascus since two weeks ago, triggering off a decline in the daily output from 65,000 to 40,000 gas cylinders.
Allaw said the ministry has raised the ceiling of daily production to its maximum level to reach between 63000 and 65000 gas cylinders.
On Tuesday, the cabinet convened to discuss the shortage in diesel and to seek "radical solutions" to the crisis, according to Syria's official news agency. A number of solutions were recommended but none has been put into force so far.
Few months ago, the government has, in response to pressing popular demands, lowered the diesel prices from 25 Syrian pounds per litter to 15 pounds, pushing up the consumption of this item and triggering off its smuggling to neighboring countries.
In September, the EU imposed an embargo on crude oil imports from Syria and banned EU firms from new investment in its oil industry.
Syria produces about 350,000 barrels of oil per day as well as 13.5 cubic meters of natural gas. Its daily consumption is much higher than this figure and it used to meet the shortage via importing gas from Egypt.
Syrian economy minister Mohamad Nedal Alchaar told the press recently that the country was going through "the worst crisis in the recent history of Syria."
It's still likely that the crisis would further aggravate when fellow Arab countries fulfill their threats and impose sanctions on Syria for its alleged failure to implement a recent plan recommended by the Arab League to end the eight-month-old crisis in the country.
