Saudi Arabia has welcomed the United States’ decision to lift sanctions on Syria, describing the move as a constructive step that can help advance regional stability and support humanitarian and economic recovery efforts.

Saudi officials said the decision reflects a growing recognition of the need to ease pressures on the Syrian people and enable practical pathways toward reconstruction and reintegration.

In an official statement, the Kingdom underscored that removing the sanctions will facilitate humanitarian assistance, revive economic activity and create conditions more conducive to political dialogue.

Riyadh emphasised that sustained engagement and cooperation among regional and international partners are essential to ensuring that the benefits of the decision translate into tangible improvements on the ground.

Saudi Arabia has played an active diplomatic role in recent efforts to encourage dialogue and reduce tensions across the region, including steps aimed at reintegrating Syria into Arab and regional frameworks.

Officials noted that lifting the sanctions aligns with broader initiatives to stabilise the Middle East, curb humanitarian suffering and promote long-term security through cooperation rather than isolation.

The Kingdom said it remains committed to working with partners to support Syria’s recovery in ways that respect sovereignty, foster economic opportunity and contribute to a more secure regional environment.

Saudi leaders expressed hope that the decision will open the door to increased coordination on reconstruction, humanitarian aid and the return of displaced Syrians, reinforcing momentum toward stability after years of conflict.
