Namely the announcement, since the beginning of his meeting with Donald Trump, of the suspension of all sanctions contained in the Caesar law, adopted by Congress at the end of 2019, which hinders any possibility of economic recovery for the reconstruction of Syria. This is the Syrian president’s priority goal. Enough to forget the slight disappointment of the silent welcome without passing the stairs and shaking hands in front of the photographers.

The interview lasted more than two hours.
