President Donald Trump revealed on Tuesday that he and Secretary of State Marco Rubio have resolved a major issue involving Syria. However, he did not provide details regarding the nature of the problem or the solution. Trump's announcement followed a conversation with Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa.

The United States has been actively involved in shuttle diplomacy to negotiate a sustainable ceasefire and a political settlement with the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces, which were once America's primary allies in the region, and now with President Sharaa, considered a key partner.

This diplomatic effort marks a shift in U.S. alliances in the Middle East as it seeks to stabilize the conflict-ridden region through new partnerships.
