Oman to reopen embassy in Baghdad 30 years after closure

The Sultanate of Oman will re-open its embassy in Baghdad nearly 30 years after it was closed, Iraq’s Foreign Ministry has announced.

In a statement, Iraqi Foreign Minister Mohammed al-Hakim said he received a letter from his Omani counterpart Yusuf bin Alawi stating that the Gulf country plans to reopen its embassy in Iraq’s capital and resume full diplomatic activities.

The re-opening of the embassy comes decades after Oman closed and evacuated from Baghdad in 1990 following Iraq’s invasion of neighboring Kuwait.

In April, Saudi Arabia announced that it was reopening its embassy in Baghdad, closed since 1990.
