Syria is joining the American-led international alliance against the Islamic State, a US official said on Monday, hours after its president held a historic meeting with Donald Trump at the White House.
“During the visit, Syria announced that it is joining the Global Coalition to Defeat ISIS,” becoming the 90th member of the alliance and “partnering with the United States to eliminate ISIS remnants and halt foreign fighter flows,” the senior administration official said.
The official added that the United States was also allowing Syria “to resume operations at its Embassy in Washington to further counterterrorism, security, and economic coordination.” (AFP)
