"An American flag was raised outside of the long-shuttered US ambassador's residence in Damascus on Thursday, signaling a thaw in relations between the US and Syria."
"Barrack’s visit coincides with an agreement for a consortium of Qatari, Turkish, and US companies to develop a new energy project for Syria's electricity grid."
The raising of the American flag at the former US ambassador's residence in Damascus marks a significant step in the normalization of relations between Washington and Syria under its new leadership. US special envoy Tom Barrack's visit included meetings with Syrian President Ahmad al-Sharaa and the signing of agreements for a substantial energy project to rehabilitate Syria's war-crippled power grid. The project, backed by a consortium of companies from Qatar, Turkey, and the US, aims to address more than half of the country's electricity needs, reflecting a shift in US policy towards engagement with Syria.
