Ahmad Al-Sharaa\u2019s visit to Washington in November 2025 marked a notable moment in the gradual rebuilding of Syrian\u2013American relations. After years of diplomatic rupture, wide-ranging sanctions, and a profound shift in Syria\u2019s political landscape, the trip was widely viewed as a test of whether both governments could redefine their engagement \u2013 particularly in southern Syria, where American, Syrian and Israeli security interests converge.<\/span><\/p>\n

Discussions in Washington focused on potential sanctions relief and the possible repeal of the Caesar Act, alongside Syrian commitments to counter-terrorism cooperation and to a more formal role within the international coalition against ISIS. Although reserved in his public statements, Al-Sharaa appeared intent on a cautious political opening \u2013 one designed to stabilise his interim government while protecting Syrian sovereignty along the southern frontier.<\/span><\/p>\n

In interviews with US media, Al-Sharaa declined to comment directly on the question of potential talks with Israel. He stated that Syria was not ready for direct negotiations, yet he left scope for indirect, US-led channels on specific security matters. Analysts argue that this dual posture \u2013 rejecting outright normalisation while permitting limited mediation \u2013 suggests that Damascus may be willing to entertain narrow security understandings that do not address core national issues such as the Golan Heights.<\/span><\/p>\n

Shifting geopolitical calculations<\/b><\/h2>\n

Firas Mokheimer Yaghi, a Jerusalem-based analyst of Israeli and Palestinian affairs, tells <\/span>+963<\/b> that Al-Sharaa\u2019s \u201cwarm and symbolic White House visit \u2013 with highly visible gestures \u2013 reflects a major geopolitical shift following the fall of the previous regime.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

He argues that Syrian\u2013American relations are increasingly tied to shared interests: Washington\u2019s regional security priorities and Israel\u2019s strategic concerns on one side, and Syria\u2019s pressing need for economic space on the other. According to Yaghi, the United States has agreed to gradual sanctions easing \u201cwithin a monitored and largely humanitarian financial framework,\u201d supported by regional actors including Saudi Arabia and Turkey.<\/span><\/p>\n

Yet, he notes, Israel\u2019s wider security doctrine regarding Syria, Lebanon and Gaza continues to limit what Washington can pursue with Damascus. The United States, he says, cannot demand concessions from Israel that challenge its core threat assessments \u2013 especially in relation to Syria\u2019s Druze and Kurdish regions.<\/span><\/p>\n

Yaghi identifies three elements that he believes will frame any future US\u2013Israeli approach to Damascus:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u2013 <\/span>Security<\/b>: widening the disengagement zone into a broader, heavy-weapons-free buffer in the south, restricting Syrian army deployments, and reinforcing US positions in al-Tanf and bases near Damascus \u2013 preparing the conditions for any future Israeli drawdown.<\/span>
\n<\/span>\u2013 <\/span>International and regional<\/b>: integrating Syria into the coalition against ISIS and coordinating with Israel and Arab states to contain Iran\u2019s IRGC, Hezbollah and Palestinian armed groups \u2013 effectively placing Damascus under probation.<\/span>
\n<\/span>\u2013 <\/span>Political<\/b>: encouraging decentralisation or strengthened local governance to accommodate the demands of Druze and Kurdish communities without breaking Syria\u2019s territorial integrity.<\/span><\/p>\n

Emerging security coordination<\/b><\/h2>\n

Political analyst Talaat Taha tells <\/span>+963 <\/b>that developments over recent months indicate \u201ca clear intention to create structured security coordination between Syria and Israel,\u201d adding that Al-Sharaa\u2019s visit was principally intended \u201cto align security channels with Israel,\u201d opening the way for broader cooperation in the future.<\/span><\/p>\n

He claims that the emerging US\u2013Israeli\u2013Syrian framework grants Al-Sharaa the authority he needs to secure a renewed presidential term, provided he fulfils joint American and Israeli requirements.<\/span><\/p>\n

For Israel, Taha says, the aims are relatively direct: to contain Hezbollah, secure the northern border, expand logistical networks in the region, and exert indirect pressure on Lebanon through Syria. He points to recent joint operations against ISIS cells in southern Syria \u2013 which he regards as preliminary evidence of coordinated counter-terrorism activity.<\/span><\/p>\n

Taha adds that some proposals address particularly sensitive issues, including the Golan Heights. He argues that the territory is unlikely to return to Syria under any foreseeable arrangement, though it might eventually become a \u201cneutral open zone\u201d under a future agreement.<\/span><\/p>\n

A policy of restraint<\/b><\/h2>\n

From Damascus, political analyst Bassam Suleiman tells <\/span>+963<\/b> that despite increasing speculation, southern Syria \u201cwill remain Syrian,\u201d arguing that Israel may apply pressure but cannot alter the region\u2019s identity.<\/span><\/p>\n

He says that the Syrian government is prioritising diplomatic outreach and avoiding escalation, while resisting any comprehensive political settlement under externally imposed terms. According to Suleiman, Israel is attempting to shape an agreement at what it perceives as a moment of Syrian weakness \u2013 a scenario Damascus rejects as dangerous for national sovereignty.<\/span><\/p>\n

Suleiman contends that gradual re-engagement with the international system, accompanied by phased sanctions relief, will strengthen Syria\u2019s legitimacy and restrict Israel\u2019s freedom of unilateral military action. As he puts it, \u201cas Syria reconnects with the international system, targeting it becomes costlier.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

On the ground, southern Syria appears to be undergoing a slow transformation in security arrangements. The United States is reportedly working on layered security zones involving heavy-weapons-free areas under Syrian police supervision. Israel has expressed concern over this process, even as it faces American pressure to review its operational approach.<\/span><\/p>\n

Full political normalisation remains a distant prospect. Nonetheless, evolving security understandings in the south are gradually shaping a pragmatic equilibrium \u2013 one balancing Syrian sovereignty, American strategic objectives, and Israeli security priorities, while Damascus seeks to stabilise the country and avoid further confrontation.<\/span><\/p>\n
