U.S. President Donald Trump is set to meet Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa in Saudi Arabia, marking a significant diplomatic gesture as Washington lifts sanctions on Syria. The visit is part of Trump's four-day Gulf region tour, emphasizing economic cooperation and regional stability.
President Donald Trump will meet with Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa on Wednesday during his Middle East tour, following an announcement to lift longstanding sanctions on Syria. The meeting will take place in Riyadh, where Trump is also engaging with Gulf Cooperation Council leaders.
Ahmed al-Sharaa, a former commander with ties to al Qaeda who renounced the group in 2016, now leads Syria's interim government after the ousting of Bashar al-Assad. The interaction will be closely monitored as the U.S. recalibrates its relationship with Damascus.
Trump’s Gulf tour has seen major economic commitments, including $600 billion in Saudi investments in the U.S. and a $142 billion arms deal. In Qatar, Trump will meet Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad al-Thani, with Qatar expected to announce substantial U.S. investments.
The tour will conclude in Abu Dhabi, where Trump will meet UAE leaders. A potential detour to Türkiye for a meeting involving Russian and Ukrainian presidents is also under consideration.
