President Donald Trump signed an executive order lifting sanctions on Syria while maintaining restrictions on former leader Bashar al-Assad and his associates.
"This is in an effort to promote and support the country's path to stability and peace. The order will remove sanctions on Syria while maintaining sanctions on the former president Assad or his associates, human rights abusers, drug traffickers, persons linked to chemical weapons activities, ISIS and their affiliates, and Iranian proxies," White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told reporters.
Trump is "committed to supporting a Syria that is stable, unified and at peace with itself and its neighbors," Leavitt said.
