Ahmad al‑Sharaa, once formally designated a terrorist and long opposed to U.S. forces in Iraq and Syria, is now poised to meet Donald Trump at the White House. Al-Sharaa founded Jabhat al‑Nusra — the Syrian branch of Al‑Qaeda — and led attacks against U.S. troops, before being captured and held at Abu Ghraib Prison with a U.S. bounty of $10 million on his head.
Now, the U.S. has lifted major sanctions on al-Sharaa and Syria in 2025, marking a radical shift in U.S.–Syria relations and regional geopolitics.
This dramatic turnaround—from jihadist commander to recognized political interlocutor—raises deep questions about the nature of alliances, counter-terrorism strategy and the future of Syria under al-Sharaa’s rule.
