The Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced, on Tuesday evening, that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has decided to resume the work of its diplomatic mission in Syria.

A statement by the Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs noted that the resumption of the work of the diplomatic mission in Damascus comes “out of the brotherhood ties that unite the peoples of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the Syrian Arab Republic, and out of keenness to contribute to the development of joint Arab action and the strengthening of security and stability in the region.”

The statement indicated that the decision took into account the decision of the Council of Arab Foreign Ministers, issued Sunday in Cairo, to resume the participation of Syrian delegations in the meetings of the Council of the League of Arab States and all its affiliated organizations and agencies.

Syrian Foreign Ministry on its part stated that Damascus resumed the work of its diplomatic mission in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
