New York Times reported that unnamed US military officials said President Donald Trump would allow around four months for troops to withdrawn from Syria, a stark contrast to his original and sudden announcement of an immediate pullout.

Trump confirmed on Twitter that troops would “slowly” be withdrawn, but complained that he got little credit for the move after a fresh round of criticism from retired Gen. Stanley A. McChrystal and reports from the departing White House chief of staff, John F. Kelly, himself a retired Marine general, about the president’s impulsive decision-making.
