Crises in Syria
With the escalation of the Syrian crisis and the disappearance of its position in the world market, as well as the role of transit of goods that Syria played years ago between the Arab countries of the Persian Gulf and Europe, this position now seems to have been lost. According to a news item published in August 2013, in the past, 30,000 shipments of goods passed through Syrian territory annually, transporting various goods from the Arab countries of the Persian Gulf to Europe and vice versa. 

These shipments, which were usually transported by truck, passed through Jordan and Turkey, which played a significant role in the transit profitability of these countries. The Syrian war prevented many of these goods from being sent to Europe via Syria.
