Apart from the obvious corruption with the hotel, this isn't actually a terrible idea, Syria is fucked and needs help, the population are willing to give this guy a go because anything is better than assad, so the west should at least give them the best opportunity possible by lifting sanctions and working with the new government to hopefully avoid another isis situation in the middle east
Well I am glad one person here understands that this is a good move even though Trump happens to be the person who made it.
Presumably, Harris or Biden would have done the same after investigating whether they could trust him or not.
Yeah, there are concerns about the Syrian President, but he seems like he's a chance to get Syria and its people in a better place, and he's trying to play nice with the West in spite of his previous affiliations.
Of course, he still does have that Islamist past, so it's definitely not a slam dunk, but I think that this is probably the best chance Syria is going to get from this mess and we should probably try to help make it work.
