President Ahmad al-Sharaa has “pledged to help with Hezbollah,” United States President Donald Trump told reporters on July 8.
Asked whether Sharaa has made any “commitments” to him on “helping with Hezbollah in Lebanon,” Trump told a reporter while on his way to the U.S. on Air Force One after taking part in the NATO summit in Turkey: “Yeah he did. He’s done a great job. He’s unified Syria.”
“I’m not gonna tell you what he said, but yeah, he was great today,” he added.
Trump met with Sharaa on the sideline of the summit in Ankara, where he announced that the U.S. will be removing Syria from its list of state sponsors of terrorism.
The U.S. president offered high praise for Sharaa during the meeting, crediting him with a rapid and successful unification of the nation.
“He’s done a really fantastic job as president. He’s unified the country in a very short period of time,” said Trump, describing the Syrian leader as a “strong person” who is “respected by everybody.”
Trump further claimed that the situation in Syria was initially a “real mess” and a “very disjointed place” before the new administration brought it together.
“We released sanctions from the country, which really, I think, was a big boost,” he said. “We’re proud of the job he’s doing,”.
Trump has floated the idea of Syrian military intervention against Hezbollah more than once in recent weeks, expressing frustration over Israeli operations in the country. While Sharaa has dismissed the possibility, there have been credible reports of Syrian military buildup along the Lebanese border.
The decision to remove Syria from the U.S. list of state sponsors of terrorism may be a part of a deal with Sharaa against Hezbollah.
Any Syrian military intervention against Hezbollah would likely ignite a sectarian-charged regional war, potentially triggering Iranian strikes on Damascus and a counteroffensive by Tehran’s allies in Iraq. The U.S. and Israel may be hoping for such a scenario to offset their recent military setbacks against Tehran.

guys, there’s no gas left in russia. have you got used to riding donkeys yet? 😆😆😆
hopium is a wonderful thing. what they really need is a new wunderwaffe to go with the previous 127 ones.
russians aren’t semitic palestinians who use such livestock as inexpensive carriers. f*ckwit inbreds such as yourself couldn’t exist without freeloading and easy rides, usually at some other group’s expense.
still crazy that no one cares that this is an al-queda terrorist
their not head choppers when their on the cia payroll.
and least of all this fraudulent ‘russia first’ kremlin crowd.
explodam a casa de sharaa e matem ele e todo o seu governo seja varrido da terra
s-f sure doesn’t like disparaging remarks about the guy sitting next to the 0range tra$h can singing his praises and praying he won’t wind up outside an hezbollah bunker with his head disconnected from the rest of his body sitting atop a wooden stake!… i wonder what the russian contingent coming back to tartus “thinks”???…
likelyhoodjewlani joining the war against hezbollah is low. hes mostly a turkish pawn more so then a israeli one. him waging war with lebanon will be to costly for his weak militia force. hes reliant o turkish training and arms to do anything. erdogan backing him against iran would turn a lot of turks against erdogan. people dont take his weak rethoric anymore he hasnt done anything for the palestinians and israel wants to wage war agsinst him next naftali bennett already made that clear.
erdogan too knows if hezbollah falls it only benefits israel and the closer they are at his border for the war they promised they want war with him to steal antakiya and aleppo forever. if erdogan still keeps giving felato to netanyahu its the end of his regime.
lebanon will be carved like a lamb carcass…heheheh
the south will be one big kike graveyard.
seig heil mein fuhrer! a final solution!
the regime in place now is syria did not bring anything in to place that wasn’t already there. they destroyed the place with weapons from nato and the us. president assad will return, america’s economy will tank when its manipulation of most of the worlds trading is no longer possible. roll on the next world currency, very probably backed by gold.
it would seem that the american elites would rather destroy the entire world than allow a natural course of events.
well sure, i know if i needed help the first one i would go to is a known head chopper?
trumps al-cia-da mercenaries just got their new orders
the jooz are running from hezbollah like rabbits, so bring in the expendable proxy head choppers.
oh wow! who would ever think of this? al jewlani will be stomped like a roach by…many benefactors.
buggy men will be coming for all these traiters. loose this world and next.
al-sharaa is trump’s little bitch.
mafia don and his mercenaries create another propaganda moment to honor chaos and dystopia.
the jooz and their goy quisling whores have been defeated in lebanon. hezbollah gave them a good spanking. so the jooz did what they always do – try to get what they could not achieve on the battlefield through fake bogus “ceasefires” and sordid deals with bought and blackmailed quisling puppets with no legitimacy. but they will achieve nothing in lebanon. hezbollah will just carry on whacking the joo squatters day by day till they bu**er off
back to the kikenreich, just as they have had to every time they invaded lebanon from the 1970s onwards. their puppets in beirut will have to flee the country if they don’t want to end up mussolini style, dangling from a meat hook the idea of the lebbo army disarming hezb. is farcical. if the jooz and their goy muscle couldn’t do this, what chance has the joke lebbo army got?
