U.S. President Donald Trump1 is talking about withdrawing American troops from the war-torn Middle Eastern nation of Syria. The Pentagon has said there are around 2,000 U.S. troops there. Their main mission has been to fight the ISIS terrorist group, which used to control a large amount of territory in Syria.
But according to "The New York Times", a coalition2 of military forces led by the U.S. has taken back 97 percent of the areas that ISIS once held.
And U.S. President Donald Trump recently said that the American troops there should leave soon. He's told his advisers3 to start planning to bring them home, but a date for a U.S. withdrawal4 hasn't been set. There's still some ISIS militants5 in Syria, and President Trump's military advisors6 say the U.S. troops who are there will need to stay for the immediate7 future.
Some analysts8 say that if the American forces leave too soon, the country will fall under the influence of Iran and Russia who've supported Syria's current government.
The White House says it's still committed to getting rid of whatever ISIS pockets remain first.
As far as the future of the war-torn country goes, President Trump says the cost of stabilizing9 Syria will have to be covered by other countries in the region.
