Poland will resume the operations of its embassy in Syria in january 2027.

TodayPress TV reports, citing sources, that the RMF radio station has reported this development.

It was stated that Polish diplomats will return to the embassy in Damascus, which suspended operations in 2012. The diplomatic mission is scheduled to reopen in january 2027.

According to the report, a group of Polish diplomats is already in Syria to organise renovation work at the embassy building, which has been unused for more than a decade.

According to RMF, the return of Polish representatives to Syria is linked to Brussels’ efforts to strengthen cooperation with Damascus.

It should be noted that in july 2012, Poland’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs decided to close its embassy in Syria and evacuate its diplomats due to the civil war in the country.
