Syria’s new high-denomination banknote to feature President Assad

The Central Bank of Syria has released a new high-denomination banknote that features the face of president Bashar al-Assad.
On Monday, the country’s state news agency reported that the new 2,000 Syrian pound ($4) – the largest banknote now in circulation – was released on July 2.
