Baku-APA. Czech Deputy Foreign Minister Vladimir Galuska and U.S. ambassador to Prague Norman Eisen Friday signed a memorandum on providing consular services for the United States in Syria by the Czech embassy in Damascus, APA reports.
"The Czech Republic accepted the official request to act as the United States’ Protecting Power at the end of July," said the Czech Foreign Ministry.
Washington withdrew its diplomats from the Syrian capital Damascus over unrest in the country in February. The United States is the second state, after Slovakia, to use the Czech diplomatic presence in Damascus.
