Trump moves to remove Syria from US list of state sponsors of terrorism
France 24 [en]
US President Donald Trump formally began the process of removing Syria from his country's list of state sponsors of terrorism on Wednesday, notifying Congress after telling Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa the move would help rebuild the war-ravaged country. The decision marks a major shift in Washington's policy towards Damascus and is a boost for Sharaa after Tuesday's explosions in Damascus during French President Emmanuel Macron's visit.
