This was reported by the "Reuters".

"Right now, Syria has a lot of, you know, there's a lot of indefinites... I think Turkey is going to hold the key to Syria," Trump said.

Since Assad's ouster, Washington and Ankara have held talks on countering any resurgence of Islamic State militants in Syria. Washington has kept an estimated 900 troops in eastern Syria as a hedge against the militants.

Asked what he will do with those troops, Trump was vague, pointing instead to the strength of Turkey's military and highlighting his relationship with Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan.
