Trump says will remove US sanctions on Syria

  • President Donald Trump announced plans to ease US sanctions and normalize relations with Syria's new government during a conference in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on Tuesday.
  • The announcement came after encouragement from Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Turkey's leader, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, to back Syria’s new administration following last year’s removal of Assad.
  • Trump's meeting with Syrian President Ahmad al-Sharaa, a former insurgent who led the regime change, marks a strategic shift and opens dialogue on outstanding disagreements between Syria and the US.
  • Trump announced plans to ease sanctions on Syria and normalize ties with its recently established government to offer the nation an opportunity for peace, expressing hope for its success while cautioning that Iran's advancement in nuclear development leaves little time to act.
  • The shift in tone by Trump contrasts with the position of Israel, a long-standing U.S. Ally, which remains wary of al-Sharaa due to his radical background and has urged caution before quickly acknowledging the new Syrian government.
