Italian Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani is traveling to Syria to encourage the country's transition following the ouster of President Bashar Assad by Islamist insurgents. Tajani aims to coordinate post-Assad initiatives and proposes private investments in healthcare for the Syrian population. He believes that Europe should review its sanctions on Damascus now that the political situation has changed. Tajani emphasizes the importance of recognizing equal rights for all Syrians, including concerns about the rights of Christians and other minorities under Syria's new de facto authorities. Syria has been under isolating sanctions for years due to Assad's brutal response to anti-government protests and civil war.
