Trump hails Russia-Turkey safe zone in northern Syria

Tehran (KNA) - US President Donald Trump has hailed the safe zone in northern Syria established by Russia and Turkey in the wake of US withdrawal from the Kurdish-controlled region.

"Big success on the Turkey/Syria Border. Safe Zone created! Ceasefire has held and combat missions have ended. Kurds are safe and have worked very nicely with us. Captured ISIS prisoners secured. I will be making a statement at 11:00 A.M. from the White House. Thank you!" Trump said in a tweet on Wednesday.

The US withdrawal gave Turkey the green light to invade the region, which was followed by a US-backed ceasefire and a Russia-backed safe zone.
