This is reported by The Washington Post referring to high-ranking officials of the US Foreign Ministry.

According to the publication, the tasks of the US Army in Syria were revised. It is assumed that if adopted, they will include, among other things, the withdrawal of Iranian and other forces from the UAR, and the "establishment of a stable government" in the country.

As the newspaper notes, the main reason for this decision was the uncertainty of the United States that Russia will support them in the issue of the presence of the Iranian military in Syria.

It is reported that more than 2 thousand American soldiers serve in the UAR.

Previously, Trump said that the US is not going to stay in Syria indefinitely.
