President Bashar al-Assad accepts the credentials of Muhammad Jalalovich as an Ambassador of Abkhazia to Syria
Bashar al-Assad, the president of Syria, had a busy day in Damascus as he received the credentials of ambassadors from Abkhazia and Mauritania.
Abkhazia, a self-proclaimed independent state, is not widely recognized internationally and has only received recognition from a handful of countries, including Russia, Nicaragua, Venezuela, Nauru.
The United Nations still considers Abkhazia as part of Georgia's internationally recognized borders.
Meanwhile, the situation in Syria has been complex, with significant influence from Russia, Iran, and Hezbollah.
As President al-Assad continues to navigate these international dynamics, his recent diplomatic engagements might raise some eyebrows.
Syria this week carried out its first international bank transfer via the SWIFT international payment system since the outbreak of the country’s 14-year civil war, central bank governor Abdelkader Husriyeh said on Thursday, a milestone in Syria’s push to reintegrate into the global financial system.
U.S. forces have pulled out of two more bases in northeastern Syria, visiting Reuters reporters found, accelerating a troop drawdown that the commander of U.S.-backed Syrian Kurdish forces said was allowing a resurgence of Islamic State.
Iraq has officially reopened the Qaim border crossing with Syria for trade and passenger traffic, a spokesman for the Iraqi border authority said on Saturday, marking a key step in efforts to normalise relations and revive economic ties between the two countries.
