hocket. as u.s. troops begin pulling out of positions in northern syria their commander in chief donald trump defended his decision to withdraw now we've captured isis we've done what we've done we had 50 soldiers in the area talking about it and i said we want to bring our soldiers back home it's been a long time it's a major shift in u.s. foreign policy one being criticized by members of the president's own republican party senator lindsey graham one of trump's biggest supporters on twitter pledged to reverse the withdrawal of the u.s. senate calling it a disaster in the making a move also backed by the top democrat in the senate and i can tell you this it is getting roland condemnation from democrats and republicans and i expect congress will take some form of action either a resolution or something even more. u.s.

officials credit kurdish forces with helping take back territory from eisel in northern syria but there are tensions between turkey and the kurds the turkish government considers one of its most effective fighting forces the p.k. k. to be a terrorist organization some u.s. lawmakers are threatening to sanction turkey potentially calling for its suspension from nato if it attacks kurdish forces in northern syria but trump went even further threatening to economically obliterate turkey if the kurds are attacked i have told turkey that if they do anything outside of what we would think is you main they could suffer the wrath of a an extremely decimated economy still trump has long been vocal about his desire to get the u.s. out of what he calls america's endless wars trumps impulsive syria strategy has led to key members of his administration resigning last year his defense secretary

james mattis and brett mcgurk eisel special envoy what this shows president. all of his predecessors were whether republican or democratic is only concerned about himself we have a moral responsibility to the kurds because without them we would not have destroyed the caliphate in a statement on monday the pentagon made clear to turkey the united states does not back turkish operations in northern syria believing it will have a destabilizing effect on the region president trump campaigned in 2016 promising to withdraw the united states from foreign wars now with the 2020 u.s. election just a little more than a year away it appears potential voters not his senior advisers are the ones trying to care about pleasing most kymberly help at al-jazeera the white house where the turkish defense ministry is now saying that all preparations for a military operation in syria have been completed

a many political figures in the u.s. now say its kurdish allies are on their own the s.c.f. which spearheaded the u.s. led campaign against eisel reacted strongly to the president's decision calling it a betrayal saying it's lost 11000 men and women fighting against eisel fighting within the ranks of the s.d.f. all the why p.j. considered by turkey to be the syrian branch of the p.k. k. or the kurdistan workers' party turkey considers them to be a terrorist organization the planned military operation into northeastern syria is a cause for major concern with fear is the move will have negative humanitarian consequences across the region well abraham kalyan a spokesman and chief advisor for the turkish president he says the goal of the operation is to secure a safe zone to create a space for refugees to return to. we've been very responsible turkey has done more

than any other country for the syrian people over the last 7 years and for the syrian refugees we have about 3500000 syrian refugees living in turkey for the last 4 or 5 years and our efforts in geneva in astana through the political process have always been to help the syrian people and have done more than any other country when it comes to fighting isis or dying turkey has also done more than any other country when be eliminated more than $3000.00 terrorists in the jobless area but we have not occupied any part of syria when we did that we have no interest in occupying any part of syria in the east of you for eighty's or the west we are determined to fight against dying unabated we have fought against them along the turkish syrian border on the turkish soil on the iraqi side when we help them in fact in mosul and other places we will never tolerate diet to come back in any form of shape or shape there in syria or in iraq or somewhere else but let's remember

this is not only one country has responsibility it is the international community's responsibility and in fact it's the failure of the international community that they have not been able to help the syrian refugees bring a political solution to the conflict and destroy isis once and for all. we will do. what we can do in fact without a full capacity to make sure that isis doesn't come back in any form or shape but we will coordinated with the u.s. with europeans with arab countries with iran with russia and others all of these considered to be an enemy and threat turkey is determined to clear those areas from any terrorist elements. we will return those places back to the local people the syrian refugees have refused to go back to places under p y d y p to control because they. never felt secure in those places but in. others and

other places where we have returned the cities back to the local residents more than 350000 syrian refugees have gone back to their homes secondly p.g. has harassed killed or kidnapped not only arabs kurds and others who do not subscribe to their ideology but also christian children. syria and syria community has made a number of statements about this the kidnapping the christian children to invest them in their ranks so what they have done there in fact is is a threat to syria's territorial integrity political unity and the safety and prosperity of the syrian people our goal is to secure our border just as any country cares about their border security we have to take care of our own border security and make sure that the syrian refugees go back to their homes where
