US Responds To Travel Restrictions In The Same Vein
Author: admin

There has been a curious response to travel restrictions imposed by the Syrian government on the US diplomats in Syria.
The US government has decided to impose travel restrictions on the Syrian diplomats residing in Washington. They have asked the diplomats not to travel outside of the capital without taking prior permission.
In fact, the US went a step further and demanded that before travelling, the Syrian embassy should "submit a travel approval form to the Department at least seven days prior to the intended date of departure, not including the day the proposed travel is scheduled to take place, or weekends, and federal holidays."
The travel restriction had been first imposed on the US diplomats in July.
