US President Donald Trump meets Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa in the Oval Office, in Washington, Nov. 10, 2025. — Syrian Presidency

The United States has issued a new waiver to lift key sanctions on Syria, coinciding with President Ahmed al-Sharaa’s visit to Washington and meeting with US President Donald Trump.

The move suspends the Caesar Act restrictions for a further six months, enabling limited economic engagement between the two countries.

• Al-Sharaa’s visit marks the first by a Syrian president to the White House.

• Talks focused on bilateral cooperation and Syria’s reintegration into the international community.

• The US Treasury said the waiver aims to support Syria’s reconstruction and counter-terrorism efforts.

• Al-Sharaa, a former insurgent leader who overthrew Bashar al-Assad, has sought to rebrand Syria as inclusive and stable.

• Trump said he intends to “make Syria successful” and hinted at future cooperation with Israel.
