Washington: Newly elected U.S. President Donald Trump said on Saturday that the United States should avoid military action in Syria. “This is not our fight,” he posted on social media. Trump’s remarks came as rebels approached the outskirts of the capital, Damascus. He said Syrian President Bashar al-Assad did not deserve U.S. support to remain in power. Trump said that because Russia is an ally of Assad and is involved in the war with Ukraine, it “doesn’t appear to be able to stop what’s happening in Syria.”
“The United States has nothing to do with this”
The president-elect also condemned the U.S.’s overall handling of the 13-year war in Syria. “Syria is in chaos, but this is not our friend and the United States should have nothing to do with it. This is not our fight. Don’t get involved,” he wrote in a post on Saturday.
