*In December 2012, US president [[Barack Obama]] announced the US would formally recognise the [[Syrian Opposition Coalition]], rather than the Damascus government, as the legitimate representative of the Syrian people. {{as of|2023}}, the embassy of the United States is suspended due to the Syrian civil war.<ref name="Dwyer Hughes 2012">{{cite web | last1=Dwyer | first1=Devin | last2=Hughes | first2=Dana | title=Obama Recognizes Syrian Opposition Group | publisher=ABC News|location=United States | date=14 December 2012 | url=https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/OTUS/exclusive-president-obama-recognizes-syrian-opposition-group/story?id=17936599 | access-date=23 November 2018}}</ref> In May 2014, the US announced it recognised the opposition [[Syrian National Coalition]]'s US offices as an official "foreign mission".<ref name="Editorial 2014">{{cite web | title=U.S. recognizes Syria opposition offices as 'foreign mission' | work=Reuters| date=5 May 2014 | url=https://www.reuters.com/article/us-syria-crisis-idUSBREA440R220140505 | access-date=23 November 2018}}</ref>
*On 21 August 2013, the United States has threatened to strike key Syrian chemical and biological weapons installations in response to a chemical attack that was allegedly carried out by forces loyal to Assad on the rebel stronghold of [[Ghouta chemical attack|Ghouta]] within the capital Damascus. Assad had denied any involvement, however President Obama claims to have intelligence proving otherwise. No proof has been given to the public other than reports from key United States senators and representatives. As of 4 September 2013, the Committee on Foreign Relations approved an attack with a 10–7 vote.
*President Trump on 6 April 2017, ordered the first U.S. airstrike on the Syrian air force since the country's civil war began in 2011. US Navy warships USS Porter and USS Ross in the Mediterranean Sea launched dozens of Tomahawk missiles at Syria's Shayrat air base.  The strikes were in reaction to what Washington says was a sarin poison gas attack by the government of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad that killed at least 70 people in the Idlib region of Syria.  U.S. officials informed Russian forces ahead of the missile strikes, which Russian military were in Syria actively supporting and assisting al-Assad during Syria's civil war, and US air strikes avoided hitting Russian personnel. Trump, who authorized the launch of 59 Tomahawk missiles from Navy warships in the Mediterranean Sea on an air base near Homs were in direct response to Bashar al-Assad's alleged use of chemical weapons in the town of [[Khan Shaykhun chemical attack|Khan Shaykhun]] on 4 April 2017. Following airstrikes were conducted on 8 April 2017, on the Syrian city that was the site of chemical weapons attack earlier.
*On 7 October 2019, the President of the United States ordered the withdrawal of US military troops stationed on the Syrian-Turkey border. This withdrawal of military support was ordered by the President with disapproval of the Pentagon and the US Intelligence community. The US president ordered the withdrawal of military troops under the premise that Turkey would not invade the region being held by Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF); however Turkey attacked the SDF within 24 hours of US military withdrawal from the region.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2015/10/syrian-civil-war-guide-isis/410746/ | title=The Confused Person's Guide to the Syrian Civil War | website=[[The Atlantic]] | date=29 October 2015 }}</ref>
