Trump calls for nonintervention in Syria as rebel troops advance
 [Wash Examiner] President-elect Donald Trump called for nonintervention in Syria, blaming the escalating situation on former President Barack Obama.In his first public statement on the recent anti-government offensive in Syria, Trump voiced his preference for neutrality in the conflict, while suggesting that the ousting of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad could be good for Russia and Syria. "Opposition fighters in Syria, in an unprecedented move, have totally taken over numerous cities, in a highly coordinated offensive, and are now on the outskirts of Damascus, obviously preparing to make a very big move toward taking out Assad," he said in a post on Truth Social. Trump said that Russia would be unable to stop the rebel advance on Damascus due to being tied up in Ukraine. He then blamed the whole situation on Obama. Posted by: Besoeker 2024-12-08 |
