The Cypriot, Greek and Hungarian embassies will resume their operation in Syria.
The Syrian Bar Association signed a contract with the Chargé d’Affaires of the Cypriot Embassy in Syria, Sivak Avedissian, to rent a new property for the embassy in Damascus.
The lease contract was signed by the Lawyers’ Retirement Treasury Foundation in Syria, represented by President of the Bar Firas Fares, and Avedisian.
The embassy will lease the Treasury Foundation’s property No. 3161, located in Abu Rummaneh in western Damascus.
All European Union countries, except the Czech Republic, closed their embassies in Syria following the decade-long conflict.
The EU had announced that the May 26 presidential elections were neither “free nor fair” and decided to renew sanctions against 353 Syrian entities and figures.
