Shariah to Trump: Focus on Israel, not Syria
The article highlights statements made by Syrian President Ahmad al-Sharе that revealed a previous conversation with U.S. President Donald Trump. During that discussion, Trump acknowledged Washington’s recognition of Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights. Al-Sharе explained that his talk with Trump was humorous; he told him, "Why don't you give New Jersey to the Israelis? You don’t own the Golan to give it to them, but you do own New Jersey," emphasizing that the Golan "belongs to its people" and no party has the right to relinquish it. He also reaffirmed that the problem is with Israel, not Syria, and that Damascus has chosen diplomatic dialogue to address Israeli assaults. Negotiations with Israel paused after significant progress was made, only for Israel to later back out of the negotiations. He added that the current priority is the withdrawal of Israeli forces from territories they entered after the fall of the previous regime, and a return to the 1974 lines, as a step toward negotiations on security arrangements and a permanent peace agreement.
