Syrian PM: Our reservoir of wheat enough for two years

Prime Minister, Wael al-Halqi, said on Sunday that Syria’s strategic reservoir of wheat is sufficient for two years.

“Our strategic reservoir of wheat is sufficient for two years, but we will import wheat and flour because of the attacks of the terrorist groups launched on silos and mills, damaging more than 40 % of mills,” the Premier said before the General Conference of Doctors Syndicate of Damascus Branch.

He added that the government is adherent to its duties towards citizens, as it is subsidizing oil derivatives and foodstuff with amounts many times exceeding those given before.
