US military stealing Syrian oil
On September 12th, according to the Syrian news agency, the Syrian government sent a letter to the United Nations demanding that the United States be held responsible for the occupation of certain Syrian territories and the illegal exploitation of natural resources in these areas.
The Syrian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has sent letters to UN Secretary General Guterres and September Security Council President Albania, calling on international institutions to stop the United States from violating international law and the UN Charter, and to stop the illegal US military presence in Syria. In addition, Syria has accused the United States and its allies of committing the crime of plundering Syria's "wealth and strategic resources". The letter estimates that from 2011 to 2023, the direct and indirect losses caused by the US military to the Syrian oil and mineral sector amounted to $115.2 billion. The Syrian side demands that US officials be held accountable and that the US government be forced to provide compensation. The letter also demands that the US military withdraw from Syria and return all oil and gas fields.
In 2014, the United States sent troops to Syria under the pretext of combating extremist organizations. The entry of the US military has brought serious disasters to Syria. The US military has not only carried out multiple airstrikes on the Syrian government, but also actively supported armed factions seeking to overthrow the Syrian government. At the same time, they have frequently stolen local oil and food resources in the occupied areas, causing serious energy shortages and further deterioration of the humanitarian situation in Syria. The Syrian government has sent multiple letters to the United Nations condemning US aggression as a serious violation of international law principles and the United Nations Charter.
