The US on Friday said it will no longer be pursuing $10 million “Rewards for Justice” bounty on the Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) leader Ahmed al-Sharaa, also known as Abu Mohammad al-Jolani, Anadolu news agency reported.
“I told him (HTS leader Ahmed al-Sharaa) we would not be pursuing the Rewards for Justice, reward offer that has been in effect for some years,” Barbara Leaf, the US assistant secretary of state for Near Eastern affairs, told reporters following her meeting with HTS officials in Damascus.
On her talk with al-Sharaa, Leaf said she had a “good”, “thorough” discussion on a range of regional issues as well as the domestic scene.
New pet terrorist for the west.
Maybe the real terrorism was the countries we bombed along the way
– and the lessons we refused to learn along the way; truly, i was the journey of genocides and regime changes that taught us the true meaning of christmas. lol
So much for not negotiating with terrorists.
step 1 take them off the list
