new ambassador, new possibilities

The US has chosen a new ambassador to Syria, we now await the final approval from the Syrian government on his/her acceptance.
I pray that this individual will work to improve the US-Syrian relationship. This is huge as we have not had an ambassador in Syria in five years. I hope the US has made a wise choice in their selection. We need to engage with the government and people of Syria and reframe the relationship from one of a relationship with foes to friends.
