Published by WarSignal Editorial · Last updated

In a statement released from Damascus, Syrian Foreign Minister Walid al‑Sharaa called on President Donald Trump to lift all U.S. sanctions, arguing that doing so is essential for reviving the Syrian economy.

Al‑Sharaa said the sanctions have crippled the country’s economic recovery and that their removal would allow Syria to rebuild infrastructure and attract investment. He urged the United States to act swiftly to restore economic stability.

The comment comes amid ongoing U.S. sanctions that have restricted trade and financial flows to Syria, a point the Syrian government has repeatedly highlighted in diplomatic appeals.
