US troops to stay in Syria Nuland announces Washington's decision

The United States is not withdrawing its troops from Syria.

US Undersecretary of State for Political Affairs Victoria Nuland said this in an interview with CNN Türk.

“The US is not withdrawing troops from Syria. As yesterday's tragic events at the church in Istanbul showed, and we express our condolences to those who died there, the Islamic State is still active in many places. And we [with Türkiye] have been partners in the fight against terrorism for decades,” she emphasized.
