US announces lifting of economic sanctions on Syria
The United States has announced the lifting of economic sanctions on Syria.
A US State Department spokeswoman said that President Trump will sign an executive order today to lift economic sanctions on Syria.
According to the US State Department spokesperson, the sanctions imposed on Syria in 2004, which froze the assets of the Syrian government, will be lifted.However, the spokesman said that sanctions on former Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, ISIS and Iranian allies will remain in place.
In addition, the spokesman was asked whether Israel itself has admitted that Palestinians receiving aid in Gaza were harmed?
The spokesman once again replied that Hamas is responsible for the current situation in Gaza, and that it has even withheld the remains of the two Americans who died.In addition, a spokesperson for the US State Department said that regarding the denial of US visas to those who chanted anti-Israel slogans in the UK, the US will not grant visas to those who support foreign violence.
It should be remembered that in May, Syrian interim President Ahmed al-Sharaa met with US President Donald Trump in Saudi Arabia.According to the report, the meeting between Donald Trump and Ahmed al-Sharaa was significant because it was the first such meeting between Syrian and American heads of state in 25 years.
After the meeting, US President Donald Trump ordered the lifting of sanctions imposed on Syria.
