(Reuters) – A Qatari delegation arrived in Damascus to pave the way for the re-opening of Qatar’s embassy in Syria, the Gulf country’s foreign ministry said in a statement on Sunday.
Qatar’s embassy in Damascus has been shut since July 2011 when it withdrew its ambassador from Damascus after a series of deadly crackdowns by Bashar al-Assad’s regime on street protesters – violence that led to the 13-year-long civil war.
