On Wednesday, President Donald Trump will meet in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the Syrian president, Ahmed al -Shara, the former rebel who led last year to overturn former president Bashar al -assad and his regime. The White House said that “the president agreed to greet the Syrian president during his visit to Saudi Arabia tomorrow”.
Therefore, Sharia becomes the first Syrian president to meet an American president from the meeting of former President Hafez at -assad Bill Clinton in Geneva in 2000.
In the meantime, the news sites have reported that Syrian sources have reported that the president of Sharia will visit Saudi Arabia, coinciding with the visit of the President of the United States Donald Trump and his meeting with the leaders of the Gulf. The United States have studied how to deal with Sharia, since he used power in December. Gulf leaders expressed their support for the new Damascus government and who want Trump to support him, because he will prevent Iran’s return to influence Syria, after having contributed to supporting the Assad government during the civil war of the 14th year.
The meeting with Trump represents a strong push for the Syrian president, who was some time imprisoned in Iraq for his role in the rebellion that followed the invasion of the United States in 2003.
Al -Shara was appointed president of Syria in January, a month after an incredible attack of opposition groups led by the “headquarters of the Levante” of the Sharia, which took place by Damascus, ending the rule of the Assad family, which lasted 54 years.
At the time, President Joe Biden left Trump’s decision, whose administration has not yet recognized the new Syrian government. The sanctions imposed in Damascus during the Assad era are still valid.
In declarations, Tuesday evening, in Riyadh, Trump should say that “we must hope” that the government of Sharia is successful “in reaching stability in the country and preserving peace”, according to the extracts published by the White House and reported by the Associated Press.
As he was preparing to leave Washington, Trump said on Monday that he was thinking of lifting the sanctions imposed on the Syrian government. He added: “We may want to leave Syria, because we want to give them a new beginning”, adding that Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan urged him to do so. These comments represented a considerable change in Trump’s tone, which was very skeptical about the Syrian president Ahmed al -Shara.
Jonathan Bass – an American American support activist who met Sharia on April 30 for 4 hours in Damascus – together with Syrian activists and the Gulf States, tried to organize a historical meeting between the two presidents, on the sidelines of Trump’s visit to Saudi Arabia, Qatar and EAI, according to the Reuters news agency.
Syria is fighting to implement the conditions established by Washington to relieve US sanctions, which maintain the country in isolation from the global financial system and makes economic healing very difficult, after a ferocious 14 -year war.
While preparing to meet the American president in Riyadh tomorrow, at the -Sharaa he apologized for not having participated in the Arabic summit, Saturday, in Baghdad, after he was accepted with an official invitation to Sharia with strong criticism from important Iraqi politicians faithful to Iran and their supporters.
A diplomatic source told the French news agency, Monday: “The transition president of the Arabic Syrian Republic, Ahmed al -Shara, will not participate in the actions of the thirty -four Arab Arabic summit scheduled for the Iraqi capital, Baghdad, on May 17, May 17, May 17, the Absef Summit will not participate not to participate in thirty years, in Baghdad,” May 17 ” Iraqi capital, Baghdad, on May 17th. He underlined that “the Syrian Foreign Minister Asian Asaad al -Shaibani will take on the presidency of the delegation of his country at the top”.
