      <image:title><![CDATA[This handout picture released by the official Syrian Arab News Agency (SANA) shows the new Governor of the Central Bank of Syria, Abdul Qadir al-Hasriya, taking the oath of office before the interim president in Damascus on April 7, 2025. Syria’s national currency is considered the foremost challenge for the central bank post, after its value plummeted during 13 years of civil war. Hasriya takes over from Maysa Sabreen, who had been appointed caretaken governor in late December, after an Islamist-led offensive toppled longtime president Bashar al-Assad.
