Al-Sharaa: Water, agriculture and ease of movement are at the forefront of Syria-Iraq contributions Details: President Ahmed Al-Sharaa confirmed that the issue of water is one of the most important commonalities between Syria and Iraq, and emphasized the necessity to address it with a strategic vision, and to look at the agricultural areas in both countries as a food basket for the entire region. Al-Sharaa noted that the agricultural areas in Syria and Iraq are estimated at 80 to 100 million dunams, and can contribute to meeting the needs of between 100 and 130 million people, and emphasized the importance of investing water resources in the best way to achieve the highest agricultural productivity. Al-Shara'a explained that the enjoyment of modern agricultural technologies, in cooperation with countries such as Denmark and the Netherlands, will lead to the rationalization of water consumption and increase agricultural production, pointing out that some studies indicate the possibility of increasing production by about 70% in certain areas.
