The United States Pull Back Its Troops From Syria ?

The United States is preparing to withdraw its troops from Syria ?

Which will be an unprecedented reflection of US policy. Two days before President Trump’s statement, US envoy George Jeffrey described Syria as relatively peaceful and noted that a relaxation of tension gave the United States a short-term diplomatic opportunity to exercise its charm.

The Special Representative for Syrian Engagement, Jeffrey Shahra, enters his fifth month as a major solution to the problem for Washington, Syria - especially the unprecedented role played by the United States in eastern Syria. A few days before Jeffrey publicly criticized Syria and Syrian diplomacy, President Donald Trump called on Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan to try to prevent Turkey from launching an attack on eastern Syria - which would lead to an attack with the Kurds. A major crisis in the power of key partners. It seems now that Trump decided in that phone to end the US intervention in eastern Syria, raising doubts about Jeffrey’s letter and speeches.

With the withdrawal of the US military, Trump is trying to coordinate his policies with Ankara, and it is possible to study Washington’s changing policy in eastern Syria by focusing on Jeffrey’s role in development. For example, Jeffrey delivered a speech at the Atlantic Council on Dec. 17, trying to explain how the United States balances relations with Turkey because Ankara accuses the United States of collaborating with Syrian “terrorists”. In his speech, he appeared to have not heard President Trump’s changing views on US involvement in Syria and the president’s subsequent decision to withdraw. He pointed out that the People’s Protection Unit (YPG) is an important part of the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), the Syrian version of the PKK. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said on Dec. 18 that Ankara had not allowed the establishment of a “terror corridor” on its border. The 15,000 Syrian rebels who initially signed up against Bashar al-Assad’s regime say they will support the Turkish attack on eastern Syria, where US troops are.

Jeffrey said the self-defense force was a tactical and experiential relationship with former US opposition to Saddam Hussein in Iraq. His description of this relationship shows that the United States and the Syrian forces established temporary partnerships that played an important role in defeating the Islamic state. As the United States emerges from the partnership, it appears to have betrayed a group that helped destroy the Islamic state, undermining the already tense image of the United States in the Middle East. Jeffrey had to take immediate notice of these threats while paying attention to the role of Russia and Iran in Syria. Traveled to Israel to meet with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and discussed with him the importance of “maintaining Israel’s security in maintaining Iran’s unstable activities throughout the region.” He and Jordan’s deputy foreign minister for Levante and Joel Raiborn and Syria’s special envoy visited Jordan and Turkey. In September, the Foreign Ministry tried to stop the Syrian regime’s offensive in Idlib, which could lead to a wave of refugees flocking to Turkey. Turkey reached an agreement with Russia in mid-September to prevent an attack. As part of the agreement, extremists in Idlib will withdraw heavy weapons and Turkey will increase its presence. The problem was solved, Turkey.

“The United States and Turkey continue to cooperate to resolve the importance of the Syrian conflict in a manner consistent with Security Council Resolution 2254.” According to a statement issued by the US Embassy and Consulate in Turkey, Jeffrey explained the American threat to the Syrian regime against Idlib. “The Turkish government and the Turkish people have praised the continued sympathy for those affected by the Syrian conflict,” the statement said. But Jeffrey seems to have missed the opportunity to discuss the eastern part of Syria. In late October, he traveled to Manby in northern Syria and met with local military commissions related to the Self-Defense Forces. The United States has patrolled around Manbaj to prevent an escalation with rebel groups in Turkey or Syria. This is because Saudi Arabia issued its first 100 million dollars in the form of stable support for Syria. At the same time, US General Joseph Volt said the joint military patrol between the United States and Turkey would start around the city of Manby. Turkey seems to hope that these joint patrols will be a prelude to greater participation in Turkey.
