Trump said that during the period of his presidency, "the territory of the IG" decreased several times

54
The President of the United States said that during his presidency, the territory occupied by the Islamic State terrorist group (IG, banned in the Russian Federation) in Syria and Iraq decreased ninefold, reports RIA News.



On January 20, when Trump was inaugurated, 35 thousand IG militants estimated that 17500 thousand square miles (roughly 45000 square kilometers) of territory in Syria and Iraq were estimated to be inaugurated. As of December 21, according to US military estimates, the remaining thousand or so militants control about 1900 square miles (roughly 5000 square kilometers),
led Trump on his Twitter account excerpt from a Washington Examiner article.

At the same time, the newspaper noted that the article uses official Pentagon data.

Recall, Russian President Vladimir Putin, speaking on December 11 in front of the military at Khmeimim airbase, ordered the partial withdrawal of the Russian contingent from Syria after the complete defeat of the IG in this country. Later, US President Donald Trump also announced that almost 100% of the territories in Syria and Iraq, previously captured by terrorists, were released, but the American military presence in these countries remains.

          Yes, only our army and navy saved the hereditary legitimate president Bashar al-Assad from ISIS. In general, the operation in Syria is needed to change the agenda, so that the dear Russian discusses what-there-at-Syrians, how many next El-Muhos have been recaptured from ISIS ... not real problems in the country.

            That is, the fight against international terrorism is not our problem? With such reasoning, they will come to us soon. Well, they tested their weapons, gained a little combat experience. It is no secret that thanks to the experience gained, they have finished something, abandoned it for some reason, and renewed something.

      hi , Dmitry.
      His presidency is just a year with a tail, a ton of slop, but success, alas .... At the time when the sole “ISIS winner” peacock spreads its tail on the screens of American television companies, the SAA troops encircled the base in At-Tanf around the city, forcing the Americans to leave Syria.
