Details: Sources reported that President Donald Trump and the officials close to him have recently expressed interest in the withdrawal of US troops from Syria, which forced the Pentagon to start developing plans for the full withdrawal of troops in 30, 60 or 90 days.

New National Security Advisor Mike Voltz held a Friday at the US Central Command Headquarters in Tamp, Florida, meeting with the High US military leadership and received briefings on the Middle East, representatives of the US defense department said.

The White House Representative said the potential reduction in US forces in Syria was not the topic of a briefing or the purpose of Volz’s visit.

Last Thursday in the west for the media in the oval office, a reporter asked Trump that he had informed the Israeli government about withdrawing US troops from Syria.

“I don’t know who said it. I mean, I don’t know who said it, but we will make a decision on it. We are not going, we are not involved in Syria,” Trump replied.

“Syria is (their) your own mess. They have enough problems there. They do not need to be involved in everyone, “he added.

At the end of 2019, Trump ordered the Defense Minister James Mattis to withdraw all US troops from Syria. Mattis opposed this plan and eventually resigned in protest.

Trump brought out most of the US troops, but then turned them back. Since then, the American presence in Syria is ongoing.

In December, the Pentagon announced that about two thousand soldiers were deployed in Syria, which is more than twice the amount that the military has been talked about for many years – about 900.

The Pentagon spokesman then named additional 1,100 servicemen “temporary rotational forces”, which are there for 30 to 90 days, while 900 were “major” troops deployed there for about one year.

The Pentagon states that the military mission in Syria aims to weaken the Islamic State terrorist group and support the local partners operating there. These include the Syrian democratic forces, led by the Kurds of the coalition of militias and rebel groups.

Representatives of the Defense Office warn that the withdrawal of US troops from Syria leaves Syrian democratic forces and threatens the safety of more than two dozen prisons and camps for refugees with more than 50,000 people, including about 9,000 IDIL fighters.

Syrian democratic forces protect objects in which men, women and children are held, but they rely on support and financing by the US and allies to support them in working order.

Without US troops, the Syrian democratic forces could prioritize offensive operations to support military operations and democratic democratic operations and leave prisons and camps by liberating thousands of ISIL fighters.

What was before:

• In January, the United States weakened Syria sanctions for the next six months to facilitate humanitarian aid.
• The United States was also shared with secret intelligence with the new Syria government, which is governed by the Hyatrrhr Ash-Sham combat group leaders (HTSh), who dumped Bashar Assad’s regime.
