The Syrian Future Movement follows with great interest and appreciation the Syrian government’s launch of the National Campaign to Combat Drugs and Treat Addiction, under the slogan “A Syria Without Drugs,” on Friday, June 27, 2026, in an official ceremony held at the Damascus Conference Palace under the patronage and in the presence of President Ahmed al-Sharaa.

This campaign, organized by the Ministries of Interior and Health, coincides with the International Day Against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking. It embodies a fundamental shift in the state’s approach to the drug issue, adopting a comprehensive security, treatment, and prevention perspective. This reflects a clear will to eradicate this scourge, which the ousted regime transformed into a tool for financing, extortion, and threatening regional security.

The Syrian Future Movement commends this step, which moves the fight against drugs from the realm of isolated security measures to a comprehensive national strategy that integrates security efforts with educational, awareness, and health programs.
