Shahoz Hasan stated that Trump has only commented through Twitter and nothing has happened and it is too early to comment on the remarks.
He added that the SDF is waiting for the White House statement and then would comment in this regard.
The United States said on Wednesday, December 19, that it has started withdrawing its forces from Syria as US officials said White House was considering pulling out all its troops as it winds up its campaign to retake territory once held by Islamic State.
“We have started returning United States troops home as we transition to the next phase of this campaign,” White House spokeswoman Sarah Sanders said in a statement issued after President Donald Trump tweeted that “We have defeated ISIS in Syria, my only reason for being there.”
It was not immediately clear from Sanders’ statement whether all of the roughly 2,000 US troops in the country would leave and if so, by when.
Sanders suggested that the United States would remain engaged to some degree, Reuters reported.
“The United States and our allies stand ready to re-engage at all levels to defend American interests whenever necessary, and we will continue to work together to deny radical Islamist terrorists territory, funding, support,” she said.
