Before Ahmad al-Sharaa's first visit to Washington, the United States submitted a draft resolution to the UN Security Council regarding the lifting of sanctions against the new Syrian authorities. A meeting is scheduled between the President of Syria and U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday, November 10.
