“There is a new government that will hopefully succeed,” said Trump, who announced he’ll move to lift sanctions on Syria to give the country “a chance at peace”.
“I say good luck, Syria. Show us something special,” Trump said.
In Saudi Arabia, Trump focused on dealmaking with the kingdom, a key Mideast ally. Trump and Prince Mohammed, the kingdom’s de facto ruler, signed a host of economic and bilateral agreements. Trump also touched on shared concerns about the war in Gaza and Iran’s nuclear program. Trump said he wants to avoid conflict with Tehran, urging Iran to take a “new and a better path” as he pushes for a new nuclear deal. (AP) SCY SCY
