President Trump on Tuesday defended Washington’s relationship with Turkey and said the US has not “abandoned” its Kurdish allies — a day after he drew a bipartisan backlash for deciding to withdraw troops from northern Syria.

“We may be in the process of leaving Syria, but in no way have we Abandoned the Kurds, who are special people and wonderful fighters,” the president said in a series of tweets.

“Likewise our relationship with Turkey, a NATO and Trading partner, has been very good,” he continued.

“Turkey already has a large Kurdish population and fully understands that while we only had 50 soldiers remaining in that section of Syria, and they have been removed, any unforced or unnecessary fighting by Turkey will be devastating to their economy and to their very fragile currency. We are helping the Kurds financially/weapons!” he said.

Trump’s comments followed his decision announced Sunday to pull American forces from a vital area of the Turkey-Syria border, seemingly giving a green light for Ankara to launch a long-planned offensive inside Syria against its Kurdish foes.

Given that those same Kurdish forces — whom Turkey considers terrorists — have fought alongside US forces against ISIS in Syria, Trump’s decision was seen by GOP lawmakers as a betrayal.

The Kurdish-led forces have said they may launch talks with Damascus or Moscow to fill a security vacuum in the event of a complete US withdrawal from the region.

On Monday night, the Turkish Defense Ministry said it had completed preparations for a possible military operation in northeastern Syria.

Earlier in the day, Trump threatened to “obliterate” Turkey’s economy should the country do anything “off limits” in Syria.

“As I have stated strongly before, and just to reiterate, if Turkey does anything that I, in my great and unmatched wisdom, consider to be off limits, I will totally destroy and obliterate the Economy of Turkey (I’ve done before!),” Trump tweeted amid the mounting condemnation from both sides of the aisle.

On Tuesday, Trump said that “so many people conveniently forget that Turkey is a big trading partner of the United States, in fact they make the structural steel frame for our F-35 Fighter Jet.”

He continued: “They have also been good to deal with, helping me to save many lives at Idlib Province, and returning, in very good health, at my request, Pastor Brunson, who had many years of a long prison term remaining.”

Andrew Brunson was released by Turkey in October after being held for almost two years on allegations that he was connected to a failed coup against President Recep Tayyip Erdogan in 2016.

“Also remember, and importantly, that Turkey is an important member in good standing of NATO. He is coming to the U.S. as my guest on November 13th.”
