United States of America to withdraw stabilization assistance from war-torn Syria as US-led military coalition fights to completely eradicate the remaining elements of ISIS in the Middle Euphrates River Valley along the Syrian border of Iraq.

A State Department official said:

"Two-hundred million dollars of stabilization assistance for Syria is currently under review at the request of the President. Distinct from that amount, U.S. assistance for programs in northwest Syria are being freed up to provide potential increased support for priorities in northeast Syria, as will be determined by the outcome of the ongoing assistance review, including the D-ISIS campaign and stabilization efforts."

Though many believes this move could throw Syria back into chaos as al Qaeda-linked groups such as the Nusra Front still maintain a foothold in some areas but president Trump call on Arab allies in the region to take responsibility for Syria in order to allow the United States re-prioritize.





About 2000 US soldiers are reportedly deployed to Syria in a determined attempt to set the nation free of political rebels.

Gen. Joseph Votel, who oversees US military operations across the Middle East as head of US Central Command said:

"It is clear that Russia's interests in Syria are Russia's interest and not those of the wider international community."

More think hasty withdrawal of assistance is not wise as it will affect the reconstruction of Syria and may also give way for rebels to regroup just like the 2011 pull-out from Iraq that helped create the conditions that allowed ISIS to take over a sizable portion of the country in 2014.
