A decision to pull the us soldiers out of Syria would be “a serious mistake with wider consequences”.
It says the republican senator Mark Rubio in a comment to reports that the UNITED states will pull all its forces out of Syria.
the Information comes from multiple sources in the Pentagon and The White House, write a number of u.s. media.
The White house has said that the withdrawal of forces is initiated, but have not confirmed, that there is talk of a full withdrawal.
Lindsey Graham, who often has defended president Donald Trump and his politics, criticizing the prospect of a withdrawal.
– An american withdrawal at this time will be a great victory for the Islamic State, Iran, Syria, (president, red.) Bashar al-Assad and Russia, says Lindsey Graham.
A total withdrawal will be a big step, which may raise doubts about the U.S.’s future role in the region and resonate far beyond the region, he adds.
– I fear that it will lead to devastating consequences for our nation, region and all over the world, ” says Graham.
– It will also be seen by Iran and other bad actors as a sign of american weakness in the efforts to counter iranian expansion.
prime minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, said Wednesday evening that the country will have a closer look at the u.s. decision and “provide for his own safety”.
Netanyahu has many times in the past expressed concern that Iran is in the process of expanding its influence throughout the Middle east.
In a response to the many reports that a full withdrawal is imminent, says the Pentagon’s spokesman Rob Manning, that “at the present time, we continue to work side by side, together with and through our partners in the region”.
