Donald Trump says he believes he will remove Syria from the U.S. list of state sponsors of terrorism, according to multiple reports. The move is described as part of an effort to normalize ties between Washington and Damascus. Reporting also indicates the decision would extend sanctions relief linked to Syria’s post-war economic recovery. While details of timing and conditions are not provided in the available summaries, the common theme across outlets is that Trump is signaling a prospective change in the U.S. designation. Removing Syria from the terrorism sponsor list would represent a significant shift in U.S. policy, since the designation has been used to justify a range of restrictions. One outlet frames the potential change as a step that supports Syria’s economic stabilization, while another emphasizes the goal of normalizing bilateral relations. Overall, the reporting characterizes Trump’s comments as indicating intention or expectations for a future decision, rather than confirming an immediate removal.
