A US official spoke of rumors about his country's plans to facilitate the departure of Arab troops to Syria, pointing out that there were no plans to facilitate the departure of troops there. 

"The United States does not have a timetable for the withdrawal of US troops from Syria," a senior State Department official said. "Washington does not intend to remain indefinitely in Syria." According to Reuters. 

"We do not have a timetable for the withdrawal of our military forces from Syria," the official said ahead of a trip by Foreign Minister Mike Pompeo next week.




"For the sake of clarity, we are not - we do not intend an indefinite military presence in Syria, the president has made the decision that we will be able to formulate plans to do so now," the official said. 

At the end of last month, Arab media transmitters reported that the United States had submitted an official request for the premiership of Iraq's ministers and the Republic of Iraq to the entry of the Iraqi army into Syrian territory to fill the gap that would be left by the withdrawal of US forces from there. 

But the joint operations in Iraq, confirmed the lack of validity of media reports on the existence of an agreement for the entry of Iraqi forces to Syrian territory, a day after Iraqi President Barham Saleh denied the existence of an Iraqi proposal on Syria. 

The joint operations denied in a statement, "what some media reported about the existence of an agreement or negotiations on allowing the Iraqi armed forces to enter about 70 kilometers in Syrian territory."

In the same context, US officials revealed in April that the administration of President Donald Trump is considering presenting what it called a "mandatory reward" for Saudi Arabia in order to persuade it to send Arab troops to Syria to replace American forces, with Trump announcing his desire to Withdraw his forces. 

The sources said in private statements to "CNN" that one of the ideas currently being considered by the National Security Council is to offer Saudi Arabia to become a "major ally outside NATO" if it agreed to send troops and make financial contributions to the necessary funding.
