Trump Shouldn’t Delist Syria Without Conditions

The U.S. State Sponsors of Terrorism list has Syria on it, and this designation holds significant weight in influencing Syria's behavior. Removing this label without ensuring Syria meets certain conditions could undermine U.S. foreign policy objectives and embolden Syria in its regional actions. This move could also weaken the U.S.'s ability to sanction and pressure Syria over its support for terrorism and other destabilizing activities. It's crucial that any decision to delist Syria comes with clear, enforceable conditions to ensure that it aligns with broader U.S. national security interests.
