Trump’s shock announcement that he would be lifting economic
sanctions on Syria has sparked celebrations in the streets of
Damascus. What are the consequences for the recovery of a
nation rebuilding its state and infrastructure after more than a
decade of civil war? And following the announcement in Riyadh after
a meeting between Trump and Syria’s new President Ahmed al-Sharaa,
what does it mean for Syria’s rebalancing of relations in the
Middle East and across the globe? Emma Beals discusses a dramatic
week and its potential ramifications with Syrian economist Karam
Shaar, and Dareen Khalifa, senior adviser at the International
Crisis Group. • This episode of This Is Not A Drill is
