Trump says process of US normalizing ties with new Syrian regime began in meeting with al-Sharaa
US President Donald Trump says after his meeting with Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa in Riyadh that the process of normalizing relations with the new Syrian government began with their meeting, adding that he is lifting US sanctions on Syria to “give them a fresh start.”
After the White House said that Trump urged al-Sharaa to join the Abraham Accords and normalize ties with Israel, the US president says that “in the future we will continue to add more countries” to the accords.
