US announces its 'priority' in Syria
US Secretary of Defense Lloyd James Austin stated that their number one priority in Syria following the ousting of Bashar al-Assad is to protect US troops in the region.
Speaking to reporters during his visit to Japan, US Secretary of Defense Lloyd James Austin made assessments regarding the policies they will follow in Syria after the collapse of the Baath regime.
Austin stated that their number one priority in Syria following the ousting of Assad is to protect US troops in the region.
Referring to the terrorist organization PKK/YPG, which uses the name SDF in Syria, Austin said, "We have a good relationship with them, and I think that will remain the case," while declining to comment on whether the US had a role in the PKK/YPG's withdrawal from Manbij.
Noting that they are in close contact with "partners in the region," Austin said, "We will consult with them as events unfold, and we will make sure we are doing the right things to protect our interests."
