Israel's control over the Golan Heights, which was occupied from Syria during the 1967 Middle East war, has never been recognized by the United States or any other country around the world.

With the end of the Syrian conflict seemly in sight, however, the fate of the disputed region has once again surfaced on the diplomatic agenda.
