Syria Reopens Washington Embassy After Decade of Frozen Diplomatic Ties
The Syrian Embassy in Washington has reopened after more than a decade of closure. The event coincides with a visit by Syria’s newly elected president. The building itself remains in poor condition, and full restoration could take years. Despite this, its reopening marks a shift in diplomatic relations between the two nations. The reopening of the Syrian Embassy signals a change in US-Syrian relations after years of severed ties. The State Department continues to handle the upkeep of other abandoned diplomatic buildings, though disputes over access and maintenance persist. The process of restoring full functionality to the Syrian Embassy may still take considerable time.
