Germany Defends Israel Support at ICJ

Tania von Uslar-Gleichen, the General Director of Legal at the German Ministry of Foreign Affairs, defended Germany’s position against Nicaragua’s accusations of supporting Israel’s actions in Gaza at the International Court of Justice (ICJ). She emphasized that Israel’s security is a top priority for Germany due to historical reasons.

Amid ongoing Israeli attacks on Gaza, Nicaragua has filed a case accusing Germany of aiding Israel politically, financially, and militarily. The ICJ’s second hearing addressed these claims and Germany’s defense against them. Nicaragua seeks urgent measures to halt German support for Israel and resume aid to UNRWA for Palestinian refugees.

US Flag Raised Again at Embassy in Damascus After 12 Year

0

 

The US flag has been hoisted once more at the US Embassy in Damascus, Syria, for the first time since its closure in 2012.

US Special Representative for Syria Thomas Barrack made his first official visit to Damascus and personally raised the flag during a ceremony attended by Syrian Foreign Minister Assad Hassan Shaybani. The embassy had suspended operations amid the outbreak of civil conflict following anti-government protests.

No official statement has been issued regarding the resumption of embassy operations.

The move follows a surprise meeting earlier this month between US President Donald Trump and Syrian President Ahmed al-Shara in Riyadh, where a decision was made to lift sanctions imposed during the Assad era, signaling a potential shift in Washington-Damascus relations.
