Rami Muhammad Makhlouf is a Syrian businessman and maternal cousin to Bashar al-Assad. He is considered one of the most influential men in the region, the most prominent business figure in Syria, and the main owner of Syrian cellular telecommunication network Syriatel. According to the Financial Times, Rami Makhlouf has several business interests that include telecommunications, oil and gas, construction, banking, airlines and retail. In 2008, his personal fortune was estimated at $6 billion. Cyprus granted Makhlouf citizenship in 2011, then his wife and two sons, but the government retracted his citizenship status in August 2012. He had applied for Cypriot citizenship in 2009, and disclosed his assets in the country which included €320,000 worth of real estate, and bank deposits in Cyprus at a value of €17.3 million. According to Syrian newspaper Enab Baladi, Makhlouf is married to two women: a Spanish woman, and the daughter of former Daraa governor Walid Othman. He transferred part of his wealth to Dubai where he bought two high-rises: one registered in his wife’s name and the other in his son’s name. On 16 June 2011, Rami Makhlouf said that he had left the business scene in Syria. It is noted that Makhlouf’s investments are sometimes made in his personal name and often through his business groups such as Ramak and Al Mashreq Investment Fund. It was reported in 2013 that Makhlouf had forfeited his entire stake in Syriatel Mobile Telecom in favor of Ramak Development and Humanitarian Projects LLC. US sanctions were imposed on Rami Makhlouf on 21 February 2008, and he was sanctioned by the EU on 05 September 2011.
