Summary
Donald Trump declared on Truth Social that the U.S. “should have nothing to do with” Syria, sparking criticism from experts.
Critics noted that 900 U.S. troops are currently stationed there, assisting Kurdish forces to prevent an ISIS resurgence.
Experts fear Trump may withdraw these troops, potentially destabilizing the region.
Analysts warn this stance reflects a shift toward a reduced U.S. global influence, with some seeing it as a preview of a post-American global security order.
Critics also question Trump’s understanding of U.S. involvement in Syrian affairs.
I just can’t with him anymore. God forbid HTS, the Remnants, and the Kurds be allowed to form a stable government. Because of course Bibi is also bombing targets inside Syria with no pretense of them being Iranian anymore.
