In a video going viral on social media, travel blogger Ilona Karfin shared her experience of drinking coffee in Syria, in which she told that here rates are not written in front of menu items, here people have even given up carrying purses. Because to buy goods one has to keep bundles of notes. In such a situation, Ilona told that she paid 25000 Syrian pounds for a cup of coffee, which is about 163 rupees according to Indian currency. The root of Syria’s economic crisis lies in the sharp decline of its currency, the Syrian pound. There was a time when 1 US dollar was equal to 50 Syrian pounds, but today this rate has become 15000 Syrian pounds.
