Diary of the Syrian Transition - February 14-16, 2025

Highlights: Ahmad al-Shar'a goes on first internal field tour in different Syrian governorates, U.S. Congressional officials meet with Syrian FM al-Shaibani at the Munich Security Forum

*Apologies about not posting the diary on Friday or yesterday. I was a bit too tired after a busy week and travel. I was in Paris this past week for the Syria Ministerial. I had the opportunity to briefly meet Syrian Foreign Minister Asaad al-Shaibani and his delegation as well as engaging with French and U.S. officials, and the French-Syrian diaspora. I’ll be writing more about this in the coming days/weeks.
