联合国秘书长古特雷斯对叙利亚首都大马士革进行了历史性访问。1这是古特雷斯担任秘书长以来首次访问叙利亚，也是联合国秘书长自2009年以来首次到访大马士革。1访问期间，古特雷斯表示："我呼吁国际社会不遗余力地支持叙利亚人民。"1
此次访问恰逢叙利亚局势发生重大变化。1该国巴沙尔·阿萨德政权于2024年12月倒台，而在此之前，叙利亚已经历了自2011年3月爆发的内战，造成近50万人死亡。1根据联合国估计，叙利亚90%的人口生活在贫困中，世界银行去年对该国重建成本的评估高达约2160亿美元。1
古特雷斯在访问期间还就中东地区问题表明了立场。他批评了以色列在叙利亚南方的军事行动，并重申联合国的立场："戈兰高地是叙利亚的，这是毫无疑问的。"1戈兰高地在1967年中东战争中被以色列占领，并于1981年被吞并。12019年，时任美国总统特朗普签署公告，承认以色列对戈兰高地的主权。1
United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres made his first visit to Syria since taking office, and the first visit by a UN secretary-general to Damascus since 2009.1 During his trip to the Syrian capital, Guterres urged the international community to make an unwavering commitment to supporting the Syrian people.1 He stated: "I call on the international community to spare no effort in supporting the Syrian people."1
The visit comes in the aftermath of major political change in Syria, as the government of Bashar al-Assad collapsed in December 2024.1 Syria has endured nearly fourteen years of civil war beginning in March 2011, a conflict that has claimed close to 500,000 lives.1 The country faces an enormous humanitarian and reconstruction crisis, with the UN estimating that 90 percent of the Syrian population lives in poverty.1 The World Bank assessed last year that rebuilding Syria would require approximately $216 billion.1
During his visit, Guterres criticized Israeli military operations in southern Syria and reaffirmed the UN position on disputed territory, stating: "The Golan Heights belong to Syria, this is without question."1 Israel occupied the Golan Heights during the 1967 Middle East war and formally annexed the territory in 1981.1 In 2019, President Trump signed a proclamation recognizing Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights.1
