Media reports Trump contemplates retraction from Syria
(MENAFN) The Pentagon is working on plans for the full withdrawal of US troops from Syria, according to NBC News, which cited anonymous defense officials. The move comes after President Donald trump expressed that the US military's presence in Syria is no longer serving any beneficial purpose. US forces entered Syria in 2014 to combat ISIS but have remained in the country without the approval of the Syrian government.
Reports suggest that the withdrawal could take between 30 to 90 days, with plans currently being developed by the Pentagon. Trump’s new national security adviser, Mike Waltz, has reportedly met with military commanders at US Central Command to discuss the situation.
Trump commented on the issue, stating that Syria is a "mess" and that the country doesn't need US involvement. This marks the latest in a series of announcements regarding US troop withdrawals from Syria. Previous efforts to pull out troops, including a 2018 plan, faced significant pushback from military officials.
