You can help change this. Syria's political situation has changed—all sanctions have been lifted. Many companies just haven't updated their policies yet.

Tips for advocating: Reach out to legal, compliance, or policy teams. Reference the lifted sanctions. Point to competitors who have already unblocked Syria. Every voice matters.
