The Director of the Water Resources Directorate in Latakia, Engineer Mahmoud Qaddar, discussed during a meeting with a delegation from the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) the current status of joint projects, their implementation stages, and ways to develop cooperation to support the water and agricultural sectors in the governorate.
