Pentagon: US Military to Stay in Syria (Illegally) as Long as Needed
- PressTV News Videos Published on Dec 6, 2017
Pentagon has said there is no timeline specifying if and when U-S troops will pull out of Syria. Pentagon spokesman, Eric Pahon, noted that U-S troops’ commitment in Syria will be QUOTE-“conditions-based”. He claimed that the U-S military plans to stay in Syria to make sure Daesh terrorists do not return to the war-torn country. His comments come as Damascus has continually announced the presence of U-S troops in Syria is illegal as Washington is neither invited nor permitted to fight in the country. The U-S currently has about 2-thousand troops on the ground in Syria.
