Many Christians in Syria have praised President Donald Trump’s decision to withdraw U.S. troops from the north in a move they believe will help restore peace and security to the region, according to a non-YPG aligned Aramean Christian NGO.

Johny Messo, the President of the World Council of Arameans (Syriacs) (WCA), said that he believes Trump made the right decision in withdrawing U.S. forces from Syria to put an end to the “ridiculous endless wars.”
