According to CoinMeta, as reported by Axios, Israeli and American officials stated that after the Trump administration reached an understanding with Syria and Israel, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) would soon remove nuclear materials stored at a secret location in Syria. The Trump administration and the IAEA urgently sought a diplomatic agreement to ensure the safety of the nuclear materials and to prevent an escalation of tensions involving Israel, Syria, and even Turkey over this sensitive issue. American officials said that this incident validated Trump's policy towards Syria and demonstrated how the United States utilizes its close relationship with the new Syrian government to resolve potential crises. The dramatic behind-the-scenes threats and diplomatic exchanges surrounding this secret location lasted for months before a solution was reached just a few weeks ago.
