The U.S. Treasury Department has announced the suspension of enforcement of the Caesar Act sanctions on Syria. This decision, made public on November 10, 2025, allows for certain transactions to proceed, with exceptions specifically related to Russia and Iran.

The Caesar Act, enacted in 2019, was designed to impose sanctions on the Syrian government and individuals supporting it in response to human rights abuses and the ongoing conflict in the region. The recent suspension indicates a shift in the enforcement of these sanctions, although the details surrounding the specific transactions that remain restricted have not been disclosed.

This development comes amid ongoing international discussions regarding the situation in Syria and its geopolitical implications. For further context on international relations, see recent developments involving other nations.
