Turkey has appointed Burhan Köroğlu, the ambassador to Mauritania, as the Temporary Chargé d'Affaires at its embassy in Damascus, which has been closed since the onset of the Syrian civil war in 2012. This appointment marks a significant diplomatic step as Turkey prepares to reopen its embassy in Syria's capital. Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan announced that the Turkish embassy in Damascus will resume operations on Saturday, December 14, 2024. This reopening is seen as a response to the evolving political landscape in Syria, with Turkey aiming to re-establish its diplomatic presence after more than a decade of absence. The Turkish government has indicated that the embassy's reopening will facilitate further diplomatic engagement in the region.
