Riyadh: US President Donald Trump has met Syrian interim President Ahmed Al-Shara. This was the first meeting of the leaders of the two countries after 25 years. The meeting is considered to be very important for Syria, which has been struggling to overcome the situation of internationally isolated for decades. The talks, which took place from the meeting of Trump with leaders of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), is a major development for Syria, who has been recovering from the ‘Asad family’ over 50 years of reign. The special thing was that the US had rewarded one million US dollars on the arrest of Al-Shara.
‘He is a warrior’
Talking to reporters in the Air Force One aircraft after the talks, Trump praised Al-Shara and said, “He is a young and attractive person. He is a strict person. He has a very strong past. He is a warrior.” The meeting on Wednesday is also important because Al-Shara was associated with al-Qaeda in the name of Abu Mohammad al-Golani and was among the rebels fighting American forces in Iraq before participating in the Syrian war. American forces had imprisoned him there for several years. Trump said, “He is a real leader. He has taken up the responsibility and he is very amazing.”
