Hussein Arnus, acting Prime Minister of Syria since June 11, begins forming a new government.
The Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad gave the corresponding order.
“President Assad issued a decree number 210, under which he instructed Hussein Arnus to form a new Cabinet of Ministers of the Syrian Arab Republic”, – reports the agency “SANA”.
Recall that the previous government was disbanded amid worsening economic situation in the country, which led to the United States sanctions. Then, the market rate of the Syrian pound fell from 1020 to 2700 dollars.
