President Trump received unexpected praise from critics for his controversial decision to lift U.S. sanctions on Syria. Former Obama aide Tommy Vietor hailed the move as a crucial opportunity for the al-Sharaa administration. While many praised the decision, some social media users criticized Vietor for his stance, reflecting the polarizing nature of Trump's actions. The lifting of sanctions came with implications tied to Turkey and Saudi Arabia, with investment proposals, including a Trump Tower in Damascus, surfacing from the newly elected Syrian president.
Tommy Vietor stated on social media that lifting sanctions on Syria is 'absolutely the right thing to do,' allowing the new government a vital opportunity.
Vietor defended his praise for Trump against critics, asserting that despite public backlash, ending sanctions is beneficial for the al-Sharaa administration.
Trump humorously remarked during his announcement, 'Oh, what I do for the Crown Prince,' acknowledging Turkey and Saudi Arabia's involvement in urging the sanction lift.
The National Review highlighted that the new president of Syria has proposed investment opportunities to Trump, including discussions around a Trump Tower in Damascus.
