🚫 The change of power in Syria raises the question of possible changes to the US sanctions regime against the country.

Over the past two decades, Syria has been among the countries against which Washington has applied the most severe regime of restrictive measures.

These included blocking financial sanctions, large-scale export controls, import bans, transport and visa restrictions.

The US sanctions regime against Syria remains in full force. The decrees will most likely be cancelled only if Washington is confident in a large-scale and irreversible change in Syria’s political course towards the expectations and interests of the US, writes Valdai Club Programme Director Ivan Timofeev.
