In preparation for the Turkish buffer zone, some committees replace the Syrian Lira with the Turkish Lira

 

SOHR received a copy of a footage issued by a party called itself “the Syrian Committee to Replace Currency in Circulation”, where one of its members said, “the Syrian Committee to Replace Currency in Circulation has decided to start the application of a joint resolution of the revolutionary powers and military factions to use the Turkish currency in the liberated area in the north of Aleppo until toppling the criminal regime and adopting new national currency because of the following:

• To preserve our people’s money of loss due to the collapse of the Syrian Lira and printing new banknotes by the regime.
• To fight the criminal regime economically by stopping the foreign exchange flow from the liberated areas.
• To stabilize the prices of commodity and materials, and to rationalize the investment.
