Syrian president arrives in Ankara for talks with Trump

Syria’s President Ahmed al-Sharaa arrived in Ankara to meet U.S. President Donald Trump during the NATO summit. The meeting took place amid ongoing tensions in Syria, which has been ravaged by war since 2011. Al-Sharaa, who came to power after ousting Bashar al-Assad in 2024, was invited by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Trump praised Sharaa as 'tough' and highlighted their strong relationship, noting that both he and Erdogan supported Sharaa’s leadership. Recent violence in Damascus, including bomb attacks near French President Emmanuel Macron, underscores the region’s instability. Sharaa previously sought financial aid from the U.S. but declined recent military intervention requests regarding Lebanon’s Hezbollah group.
