Donald Trump meets ! Former US President Donald Trump met Syrian Executive President Ahmed Al-Shra in Saudi Arabia during his visit to West Asia. Al-Shara is the same person who was earlier declared a terrorist by the US due to association with Al Qaeda, the terrorist organization Al Qaeda. He is now involved in the new leadership of Syria by removing Bashar al-Assad from power in December 2024. The real name of Ahmed Al-Shara is Abu Mohammad al-Golani, who comes from the refugee family of Golan Heights. He established a separate government in the Idlib region, where Sharia law is in force and social services are going on.
In December 2024, he captured Damascus and removed Bashar al-Assad from power. Trump’s meeting is considered to be diplomatic and politically important, as this was the first time an American President talked directly to the leader with a terrorist history. He also announced the removal of several restrictions on Syria. The move has been taken under the US’s strategy to reduce the influence of Iran in West Asia and strengthen relations with regional countries such as Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Turkey. Now it remains to be seen in which direction the US-Syrian relations move.
