I always thought that the primary role of an Ambassador was to represent your own constituency in a foreign setting while maintaining the most agreeable relations as may be practicable.
I was not aware that an Ambassador was also expected to sing the high praises of the foreign land to which he is accredited.
A state of affairs which does not, of course, preclude an Ambassador from doing so, gratis, under circumstances in which that foreign country has done something worthy of praise.
Israel's assistance to Syria appears to be one of those praiseworthy events.
I don't think we need to burden ourselves overly much with the motives or the good faith of the EU Ambassador in this instance.
