President Biden stated that the collapse of the Syrian government marks a fundamental act of justice after decades of repression, yet it brings a risk to the region.
Biden emphasized the shift in power dynamics, crediting U.S. actions for weakening Assad's backers and eliminating their ability to maintain his leadership.
In response to Trump's comments about Assad seeking protection from Putin, Biden maintained that the U.S. would not intervene militarily, reinforcing that this conflict is not theirs to engage.
The Biden administration affirmed that approximately 900 U.S. troops would remain in Syria, focusing on preventing any resurgence of the Islamic State through targeted operations.
