Trump says will remove US sanctions on Syria
- President Donald Trump announced on Tuesday in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, that he will ease sanctions and normalize relations with Syria's new government.
- This move followed a decade-long civil war and came amid Gulf leaders' urging, including Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who supported rapprochement.
- Trump's planned meeting with Syrian President Ahmad al-Sharaa, a former insurgent who led last year's overthrow of Bashar Assad, marks a strategic shift in U.S. Policy and opens dialogue in a positive atmosphere.
- Trump expressed cautious optimism about Syria’s new government’s chances of success and cautioned that Iran’s window is closing as it advances quickly on its nuclear program and backed Assad throughout the civil war.
- The announcement represents a sharp change in tone from Trump, placing him at odds with Israel, which cautioned against recognition due to al-Sharaa's extremist past, and suggests regional realignment efforts.
