Syria is currently involved in regional energy logistics, with Iraq using thousands of trucks to transport petroleum products through Syrian territory to Mediterranean ports, bypassing the Strait of Hormuz. There are ongoing efforts to restore the Kirkuk–Baniyas oil pipeline between Iraq and Syria as part of broader economic integration initiatives. The country has also become a focal point for international diplomacy, including visits by French President Emmanuel Macron and meetings between U.S. President Donald Trump and interim leader Ahmed al-Sharaa during the NATO summit in Ankara.
