- Trump expressed hope for the success of Syria’s recently established government and wished the country well, while analyst Ibrahim Hamidi described Trump's planned meeting with al-Sharaa as a significant strategic change.
- The rapprochement suggests potential regional realignment, while Trump also urged Iran to pursue a better nuclear path to avoid conflict and maximum pressure.
