Syrian FM says Trump administration ‘lies’ about withdrawing troops
Syria’s foreign minister says US President Donald Trump’s administration “lies” all the time about withdrawing its troops from the country.
Al-Moallem is speaking at a joint press conference in Damascus with Venezuela’s Foreign Minister Jorge Arreaza, who lauded what he described as Syria’s victory over “terrorism” in the country’s eight-year war.
Al-Moallem vows to liberate all Syrian territory including the northwestern province of Idlib, the last major rebel-held stronghold in the country. He says “our patience has its limits.”
