Damascus / Washington: a Trump tower in Damascus, relaxation with Israel and American oil and gas access to Syria is part of the Syrian leader Ahmed Al-Sharaa Donald Trump during his trip to the Middle EastAccording to several sources familiar with the push of Woo Washington.
Jonathan Bass, an American pro-Trump activist, who, on April 30, met Sharaa for four hours in Damascus, with Syrian activists and Arab Gulf states attempted to organize a monument meeting, although very improbable, between the two leaders this week at the touch of Trump's visit to Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates.
Syria has struggled to implement the conditions set out by Washington to relieve American sanctions, which maintain the cut country of the global financial system and make economic recovery extremely difficult after 14 years of war.
Bass hopes that bringing Trump into a room with Sharaa, who remains a terrorist designated by the United States on his Al-Qaeda past, could help soften the republican president and the thought of his administration on Damascus and cool an increasingly tense relationship between Syria and Israel.
Part of the bet for the effort is based on Trump's story to break with long-standing taboos of American foreign policy, as when he met the North Korean leader Kim Jong one in the demilitarized area between North and South Korea in 2019.
“Sharaa wants a trade agreement for the future of her country,” said Bass, noting that it could cover the exploitation of energy, cooperation against Iran and engagement with Israel.
