Trump Tower Damascus? Syria seeks to charm US president for sanctions relief
Season 1, Ep. 8254
•
Donald Trump is to meet the Islamist leader of Syria amid reports a Trump Tower could be built in Damascus as part of desperately-needed investment.
Despite still being designated a terrorist by the US, Ahmed al-Sharaa is scheduled to hold talks with the president in Riyadh on Tuesday, hosted by Mohammed Bin Salman, the Saudi Crown Prince.
The meeting, on the opening day of Mr Trump’s visit to the Middle East, could offer a lifeline to the country’s new regime.
The 42-year-old Syrian leader has reportedly offered Mr Trump investment opportunities, including a Trump tower in Damascus, and is seeking US sanctions relief.
