Trump Calls Syrian President 'Young, Attractive Guy' After Meeting

Trump Calls Syrian President 'Young, Attractive Guy' After Meeting

Donald Trump has met with Syria's interim president, former Al Qaeda militant, Ahmed al-Sharaa, during his historic trip to the Middle East.

This is the same man the US had a $15.5 million bounty on just last year.

Trump reportedly told al-Sharaa he should "tell all foreign terrorists to leave Syria; Deport Palestinian terrorists; help the United States to prevent the resurgence of ISIS," and "assume responsibility for ISIS detention centers in Northeast Syria.”

Following meeting with al-Sharaa, Trump said of the Syrian president: “Young, attractive guy, tough guy, strong past."

Trump also became the first US President to visit Qatar, where it seems he was wowed by lavish welcome and insane wealth.

He signed a multibillion dollar deal with Qatar for 210 US made Boeing planes, in a move that multiple congressional Republicans have raised concerns over.

However, Trump said on Monday that it would be "stupid" for him to refuse Qatar's offer of the Boeing 747-8 plane - worth $US400 million ($A619 million) - which would be used as "Air Force One," the jet American presidents travel on when they fly around the globe.
