Trump urges Netanyahu to get along well with Syria's new president

【Trump: Hopes Netanyahu and Salaam Get Along】

On December 29, 2025, US President Donald Trump told reporters present at Mar-a-Lago during a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu:

I hope that Benny (Netanyahu) can get along well with the new Syrian president (Ahmad al-Salih), because the new Syrian president is trying very hard to succeed, and I hope they can get along well. I lifted the sanctions on Syria because otherwise Israel and Syria would not have the opportunity to normalize relations. Both I and Benny hope that Syria can get through the transition period, and the topic of Syria will be discussed during the negotiations.
