Syrian ambassador presents credentials to Secretary-General of Arab League

WORLD, June 26 (YPA) -Syrian Ambassador Hussam Eddin Ala, presented his credentials to the Secretary-General of the Arab League, Ahmed Aboul Gheit as a permanent representative of Syria to the League.

The appointment of Ambassador Alla comes nearly a month after the Arab League decided to resume the participation of Syrian delegations in its meetings, and he will occupy this position for the first time in nearly 11 years, following the decision to suspend Syria’s membership, where he was previously held by the late Ambassador Youssef Ahmed.

President Bashar al-Assad issued the Decree No. 126 for the year 2023, which stipulates naming Ambassador Hussam Eddin Ala, as permanent representative of the Syrian Arab Republic to the League of Arab States (LAS).

Ambassador Ala served as Syria’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations Office and International Organizations in Geneva for eight years, Syria’s ambassador to the Vatican, Syria’s ambassador to Spain, and Syria’s mission to the United Nations in New York between 1996 and 2001.
