“I say good luck, Syria has shown us something special,” Trump says.

President Trump said on Tuesday that he will move to normalizing relations and lifting sanctions on the new Syrian government to give the country a “opportunity to peace.”

Mr. Trump was scheduled to meet Wednesday in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia With Syrian President Ahmed Al -Sharra, the rebellion rebelled at a time when last year led the overthrow of former leader Bashar al -Assad. He said that the effort in rapprochement came based on the urgency of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, the actual Saudi ruler, and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

Mr. Trump said of a new government, we hope that it will succeed. SyriaHe added, “I say good luck, Syria. Show us something special.”

The developments were a big batch of the Syrian president who was imprisoned at some point in Iraq for his role in the rebellion after the conquest of the Arab country for the year 2003. Sharra was appointed as President of Syria in January, a month after a stunning attack by the rebel groups led by Shaia Haya Tarir Al -Sham or HTS that stormed Damascus that ended the 54 -year -old Assad’s rule.

The United States has been weighing how to deal with Sharra since he took power in December. The Gulf leaders have gathered behind the new government in Damascus and will want to follow Mr. Trump, believing that it is from the match against Iran’s return to influence in Syria, where it helped support the Assad government during a civil war of a decade.

At the time, Joe Biden left a decision for Mr. Trump, whose administration has not officially recognized the new Syrian government. The penalties imposed on Damascus remain in the era of Assad.

The White House said before Mr. Trump’s statements: “The president agreed to say hello to the Syrian president while he was in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia tomorrow.”

The comments were marked by an amazing change in the tone of Mr. Trump and his position at a long time with the US ally, who was deeply skeptical of the extremist Sharra past and warned of the rapid recognition of the new government.

Al -Sharra, who was previously known by the name de Gori Abu Muhammad Golani, joined the ranks of the rebels in al -Qaeda who are fighting American forces in Iraq after the US -led invasion in 2003 and still faces his arrest warrant for terrorism in Iraq.

Al -Sharra, which was once offered $ 10 million to obtain information about its location due to its links with al -Qaeda, returned to its home after the conflict began in 2011 as the Al -Qaeda branch, which was known as the Publishing Front, led. He later changed the name of his group to Hayat Tahrir Sham (HTS) and cut links with al -Qaeda.

Sharra is scheduled to become the first Syrian leader to meet with an American president since the late Haviz Assad Bill Clinton met in Geneva in 2000.

Mr. Trump was in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia On Tuesday, at the first leg of its four -day trip to the Middle East. This trip is the first for Mr. Trump in his second term and later this week, he will travel to Qatar and the United Arab Emirates.

The President made statements at the investment summit in the United States in his head, the capital of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, where the White House announced an investment of $ 600 billion from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, including what it described as “the largest defense sales agreement in history.”
