so, is this the victory that president donald trump thinks it is? jonathan katz, is an expert on us—turkish relations at the washington—based think tank, the german marshall fund of the united states. i asked him whether he thought the situation in northern syria looked like the victory that mrtrump has claimed. this is not a victory for the united states, despite what president trump has said. in fact, it is a victory for isis, for mr putin, mrassad, hezbollah and iran, but it's not a victory for the united states. as you mentioned earlier, in washington today, there is a bipartisan consensus that the president's policy in syria was a disaster that leaves the united states more vulnerable and our allies as well more vulnerable. and when you see the devastation, how it has impacted kurds, hundreds of thousands who have been displaced, hundreds killed, how can you call that a victory? the critics are saying this is president trump claiming credit for providing an answer he created. yep. but i suppose he has a point that the disengagement from thi
