United States President Donald Trump has announced that he will lift all sanctions on Syria, declaring that it was time for the country to “move forward”, giving a nation devastated by years of ruinous civil war a crucial opening in reviving its shattered economy.
“There’s a new government that will hopefully succeed in stabilising the country and keeping peace,” Trump said in Riyadh, referring to the interim government led by President Ahmed al-Sharaa.
Trump noted that US Secretary of State Marco Rubio will meet Syria’s Foreign Minister Asaad al-Shaibani in Turkiye later this week, and says his decision to end the sanctions was influenced by conversations with Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS) and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
Funny how they do this as soon as they put their guy in power
…in exchange for a new Trump hotel.
When has Trump ever cared what happens in Syria and when has Trump ever done something or spoke about something that doesn’t directly benefit him?
The answer to both is never. Which means the recent gift he received from a Middle Eastern country purchased this policy stance. Sure, It’s only a tepid lukewarm take, but demonstrates how fickle Trump is to being bought. US policy and the mouth of the US president are very clearly up for sale to the highest bidder, with all proceeds directly to Trump.
If he’s ever finally done for treason I hope they seize all assets from him, his family, his beneficiaries and his accomplices
They promised to build a Trump Tower in their country so he did this. How blatantly corrupt can he get before we do something about it?
the qataris dont give a single fuck about syria, they’re lifting the sanctions because their puppet headchopper is in power thus the sanctions no longer serve their purpose.
Wow, that’s incredible. Israel won’t be happy about it. The hasbara budget can’t cover a flying palace yet.
