Mike Pence has announced that the United States and Turkey have agreed to a ceasefire in Syria
The agreement comes as a surprise considering the visible tension between Pence and Erdoğan when they first met earlier on Thursday, as well as the fact that Erdoğan said on Wednesday that he “will never declare a ceasefire.”
Earlier this month, President Trump abruptly announced he was pulling American troops out of northern Syria, clearing the way for Turkey to invade the region and attack the Kurds, with whom the U.S. had been allied for years in fighting ISIS. After Turkey carried out the invasion, Trump alternately dismissed and decried the violence, threatening to impose economic sanctions on Turkey if the nation did not pull back militarily. “Don’t be a tough guy.
President Trump was pleased, writing on Twitter that “million of lives will be saved!” and that the deal could have never happened without “some ‘tough’ love” from the United States. This deal could NEVER have been made 3 days ago. There needed to be some “tough” love in order to get it done. Great for everybody. Proud of all!“This is a great day for civilization,” he added. “I am proud of the United States for sticking by me in following a necessary, but somewhat unconventional, path. People have been trying to make this “Deal” for many years. Millions of lives will be saved.
