The Syrian consulate in Rome announced today, Tuesday, November 12, the commencement of its consular services for members of the Syrian community.
The Syrian consulate stated in a statement via its Facebook page that it will start providing consular services to Syrian nationals as of today, Tuesday.
The consulate added in its statement that it will welcome visitors at the consulate premises during official working days from Monday to Friday, from 9 AM to 3 PM.
The Syrian consulate in Rome also published its contact numbers for inquiries from Syrians.
The reopening of the Syrian consulate in Rome comes following Italy’s efforts to engage with the Syrian regime.
Last July, Italy decided to appoint an ambassador to Syria, marking the first move after European countries called for a reevaluation of relations with Syria and engagement with the regime, with Italy among them.
Reuters reported on Friday, July 26, that Italian Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani announced that Stefano Ravagnan, who was the special envoy of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to Syria, was appointed as ambassador in Damascus.
