Exclusive – Syria‘s al-Sharaa eyes potential Trump meeting at Ankara NATO summit

(June 16, 2026)

Syrian President Ahmad al-Sharaa may travel to Ankara to meet with U.S. President Donald Trump on the sidelines of the upcoming NATO summit, though he has not received an official invitation to the gathering, according to information obtained by Türkiye Today.

Contrary to the reports published earlier in Turkish media, the Syrian leader is not included on the official guest list for the alliance‘s formal event. However, sources indicate a face-to-face meeting with Trump remains a possibility as global leaders converge on the Turkish capital.

Trump plaudert am G7-Gipfel Plan B aus für Fortsetzung der Kriege in Westasien

Euronews berichtete mit der Schlagzeile, Trump habe Netanjahu zu „mehr Verantwortung“ ermahnt und Syriens Präsidenten als den „Fähigsten“ zur Bekämpfung der Hisbollah bezeichnet. Das ist der Terrorist, auf den die USA davor eine Kopfprämie von 50 Millionen Dollar ausgesetzt hatten und der jetzt für sie arbeitet – als Terrorist. Middle East Eye nannte es eine Bestätigung von Berichten, die „ein hochrangiger US-Beamter ursprünglich dementiert hatte“ — nämlich dass Washington Syrien zu einer Invasion des Libanon drängt.

Syria‘s al-Sharaa rejects military action against Hezbollah despite Trump‘s push – report

New details have also emerged regarding discussions involving Israeli and Lebanese representatives. Reports indicate that Trump proposed a framework in which the Syrian military would play a central role in a future effort to disarm Hezbollah.

The proposal, however, has reportedly faced skepticism from multiple sides. Israeli officials have questioned Syria‘s ability to effectively confront Hezbollah, while Lebanese authorities oppose the presence of foreign troops operating within Lebanon.

Trump Suggests Syria Should ‘Take Care’ of Hezbollah in Lebanon

“I suggested to Israel to let Syria take care of Hezbollah, because to be honest with you, I think they’d do a better job of doing it,” Trump said. He went on to praise Sharaa, formerly known by his al-Qaeda nom de guerre Abu Mohammed al-Jolani, saying he “has pulled that country together very quickly, he’s very capable, and he’s very good for me. He’s protected everything that I’ve asked for.”

Sharraa and his group of jihadists, known as Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), an offshoot of al-Qaeda, took power in Damascus in December 2024, ousting former President Bashar al-Assad. Sharaa has been embraced by Trump and visited the White House despite HTS and affiliated fighters being responsible for massacres of Alawites, Druze, and other minorities in Syria.

Why Trump’s proposal for Syria to fight Hezbollah will send shudders across Lebanon

US President Donald Trump suggested on Tuesday that Israel allow Syria to “deal with Hezbollah,” claiming Damascus would do a “better job.” The proposal, which Trump has now raised twice this month, touches on some of Lebanon’s deepest anxieties: Syria’s long history of interference in its affairs and the jihadist past of the country’s new rulers.

Hezbollah just restarted the fight that Israel was waiting to finish

(March 2, 2026)

In the pre-dawn hours of Monday morning, Hezbollah opened a new front in the US-Israeli war against Iran when it launched “missiles and a swarm of drones” at a military base in northern Israel.

The Iran-backed militant group, which has its power base in southern Lebanon, called it revenge for the killing of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

Never mind that Israel says the attack did no damage. One projectile was intercepted, while others fell in open areas.

Or that Lebanon’s Prime Minister Nawaf Salam called it “an irresponsible and suspicious act,” and banned Hezbollah’s military activities.

Israel has been poised for this moment for months.

President Aoun condemned the attack, describing it as “part of a continuous pattern of Israeli aggression” and noting that it occurred “shortly after the meeting of the Ceasefire Monitoring Committee (Mechanism), which must not limit itself to recording incidents, but act to end them by pressing Israel to respect the November ceasefire agreement and cease its violations of Lebanese sovereignty.”
