Qatar has reopened its embassy in Syria for the first time in over 13 years, following significant political changes and the fall of President Bashar al-Assad’s regime. The Qatari Foreign Ministry highlighted this move as support for the Syrian people’s quest for legitimate rights. Meanwhile, Russia evacuated part of its embassy staff, while the UK and the US engage diplomatically with the rebel group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, which recently gained power in Syria. Discussions surrounding international cooperation with the new authorities remain complicated.
