The measure extends the suspension of Caesar Act sanctions for another 180 days and maintains the removal of comprehensive trade restrictions first lifted in June. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Officials said the decision \u201cindicates our commitment to continued sanctions relief for Syria,\u201d according to the Treasury Department\u2019s statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The renewal allows most U.S. business activities with Syria to continue, including civilian trade, technology transfers, and financial transactions, while keeping restrictions in place on entities and individuals tied to Bashar al-Assad\u2019s regime, human rights abuses, and terrorism. The suspension does not apply to transactions involving Russia or Iran.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cRemoving U.S. sanctions will support Syria\u2019s efforts to rebuild its economy, provide prosperity for its citizens, and combat terrorism,\u201d the Treasury and Commerce Departments said in the joint release. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The policy framework encourages U.S. companies and international partners to reengage in Syria under new export and licensing rules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Secretary of State Marco Rubio <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/SecRubio\/status\/1988039672673825187\">said<\/a> the administration\u2019s renewal of relief \u201csupports Syria\u2019s efforts to rebuild its economy, restore ties with foreign partners, and foster prosperity and peace.\u201d He added that President Trump expects \u201cconcrete actions by the Syrian government to turn the page on the past and work toward peace in the region.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The meeting between Trump and al-Sharaa marks a milestone in U.S.-Syria relations after the fall of Bashar al-Assad\u2019s government in late 2024. Al-Sharaa, a former commander of the Turkish-backed group Tahrir al-Sham, took power following the opposition\u2019s capture of Damascus and has since sought international recognition and cooperation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Discussions at the White House focused on reconstruction, counterterrorism cooperation, and regional stability. Syria is also expected to formally join the U.S.-led Global Coalition to Defeat ISIS.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The United States has renewed its suspension of sanctions on Syria as President Trump met Monday with Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa at the White House, the first visit by a Syrian leader to the U.S. since the country\u2019s independence in 1946.
