Media report: The United States to establish an “official” military base in Syria with the approval of the Syrian transitional government
Media sources reported the establishment of a US military base in Syria, and that a US delegation will visit Syria within days to sign an agreement for the base, which will likely be located in al Tanf in southeastern Syria.
According to media reports, the talk is about a US delegation that will visit Syria within days and will officially sign with the Syrian government a deal to establish a permanent military base on Syrian territory.
This is the first time in Syria’s history that a US official base exists with the approval of the Syrian government.
Meanwhile, there were leaks that the base would be in al Tanf, because the US military is already in al Tanf on the Syrian-Iraqi border, in the Syrian desert.
The US al Tanf base will remain there permanently, and it will be a large base.
Another request is expected, which is for the United States to have a base on the Syrian coast, and it will be smaller.
These rules will serve as a stabilization for the US military, whose numbers have been reduced from 2,000 to 500 personnel.
