Why does Trump now want Syria to ‘take care of Hezbollah’?
Trump's frustration with Israel's actions against Hezbollah, backed by Iran, was evident at the G7 Summit. This is due to the US's changing relationship with Syria, which earlier supported Hezbollah. With Syria distancing itself from Iran, Trump sees a chance to weaken Hezbollah's influence and reshape regional alignments in West Asia. This is also driven by concerns of war affecting US polls.
