The US President Donald Trump announced the removal of all sanctions imposed on Syria.
In his speech at the US-Saudi Arabian investment forum in Riyadh, Donald Trump said he made this decision to lift sanctions in Syria following talks on the issue with Saudi Prince Prince Mohammed Bin Bin Salman.
“We took steps to restore relations” with Damascus, he added, expressing hope that the new Syrian government will be able to stabilize the country, which has experienced “a lot of suffering”.
Trump also announced that Foreign Minister Marco Rubio will meet with his Syrian counterpart, Asas al -Saimani, within a week.
