The United States removes Syria from its “state sponsor of terrorism” list, according to reports citing the US Treasury. The action is presented as part of a shift in US policy toward Syria.

US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says the decision is intended to help “foster additional investment in Syria” and to promote “political and economic stability.” The coverage from different outlets focuses on the same official rationale, with no additional conflicting details reported in the provided sources.

Both outlets frame the removal as a change in a key sanctions designation that can affect international financial and investment conditions. However, the sources supplied do not specify the precise timing, legal steps, or any concurrent measures affecting other US sanctions or restrictions related to Syria.
