A potential U.S. withdrawal from northern Syria could signal new divisions between Russia, Iran and Turkey, which have so far worked together in trilateral peace talks.
Local and international players have begun reacting to President Donald Trump's stated plans to pull troops out from northern Syria after an apparent deal with his Turkish counterpart President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.
"There have been contradictory statements about plans to withdraw troops from various parts of the world but no confirmation followed," he added."This is why we are keeping a close eye on how the situation is unfolding." After eight years of war, Turkey remains the only major sponsor of an opposition once backed by the U.S. and other regional allies such as Israel, Qatar and Saudi Arabia. Washington went on to recalibrate its efforts toward assisting a mostly Kurdish militia known as the Syrian Democratic Forces battle the Islamic State militant group , an alliance that angered Turkey, which ultimately entered into talks with Russia and Iran.
