US Secretary of State Marco Rubio stated that after the suspension of sanctions against Syria, the White House expects the country's leadership to take concrete steps to achieve long-term peace in the Middle East and to leave behind the problems accumulated over the previous decades.
"The United States expects to see concrete actions from the Syrian government that will turn the page on the past and ensure progress toward achieving peace in the region," Rubio wrote in X.
He added that the decision to suspend sanctions also aims to support Syria's efforts to rebuild its economy and restore the country's full ties with foreign countries.
