In a series of unprecedented events, Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa has made his first visit to the White House, meeting with President Trump in a historic summit that is reshaping U.S.-Syria relations. Following the landmark talks, the U.S. announced a partial suspension of sanctions on Syria, aiming to strengthen ties against shared threats like the Islamic State. Trump has expressed his commitment to support Syria, stating that the former militant, once under a $10 million bounty, is now a key partner in the fight against extremism. However, the discussions have been met with mixed reactions, with some Republican figures criticizing the normalization efforts. As discussions on the Abraham Accords surfaced, al-Sharaa dismissed prospects of a normalization deal with Israel amid the ongoing Golan Heights dispute. The international community is closely monitoring the developments as the U.S. considers further sanctions relief.
