Trump Lifts ‘Brytal’, ‘Crippling’ Syria Sanctions | Trump Unlocks Syria’s Economy After Years Of War

In a stunning reversal of longstanding U.S. foreign policy, former President Donald Trump has lifted key sanctions on Syria, ending years of crippling economic isolation. The move comes as part of Trump’s promised Middle East shift, following the fall of Bashar al-Assad and the rise of a new interim government in Damascus led by Ahmed al-Sharaa — a former rebel commander. The U.S. Treasury and State Department jointly announced a sweeping waiver of the Caesar Syria Civilian Protection Act, unlocking billions in potential investment and opening Syria’s oil, electricity, and financial sectors to international engagement. Secretary of State Marco Rubio declared the relief vital to restoring basic services like water, energy, and sanitation. #SyriaSanctions #TrumpSyria #SanctionsLifted #TrumpMiddleEast #USForeignPolicy #SyriaNews #TrumpNews #DonaldTrump #SyriaCrisis #TrumpAdministration #AssadFall #Damascus #HTS #PostWarSyria #MiddleEastPolitics #CaesarAct #SanctionsRelief #USPolicyShift #BreakingNews #HistoricMove Also Read Lebanon and Syria Agree to Ceasefire Following Two Days of Border Clashes :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/lebanon-syria-ceasefire-agreement-border-clashes-011-4097569.html?ref=DMDesc Why Is New Syrian Regime Hunting Down And Killing Alawites Amid Escalating Sectarian Violence In Country? :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/why-is-new-syrian-regime-hunting-down-and-killing-alawites-amid-escalating-sectarian-violence-in-cou-4090547.html?ref=DMDesc Syria On Boil: Over 1,000 Dead As Alawite Minority Targeted In 'Revenge Killings' By Current Regime :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/syria-on-boil-over-1-000-dead-as-alawite-minority-targeted-in-revenge-killings-by-current-regime-4090369.html?ref=DMDesc
