The United States will deploy its military at the Syrian airbase in Damascus. This was announced today, November 6, according to Reuters, citing sources.
In this way, Washington hopes to contribute to the implementation of the security pact between Syria and Israel. It will also be a "sign of Syria's strategic reorientation" towards the United States after the fall of Bashar al-Assad's regime.
The base is located at the entrance to areas of southern Syria that are expected to become a demilitarized zone as part of a non-aggression pact between Israel and Syria. The White House acts as an intermediary.
On November 10, Trump will receive Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa (formerly known as the leader of the terrorist Islamist group Hayat Tahrir Al-Sham❶ Abu Mohammed al-Julani. — Approx. EADaily) at the White House — this will be the first such visit of the new head of Syria. Prior to that, Trump called on the UN to lift sanctions on Sharaa.
As EADaily reported, on October 16, al-Sharaa visited Moscow and held talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin. As a result, it became known that Russia will retain its military bases in Syria.
