Omar Sanadiki/APPresident-elect Donald Trump weighed in Saturday on the escalating situation in Syria, where opposition forces have reportedly seized control of several cities and are advancing on Damascus. The president-elect also blamed the Obama administration for failing to enforce the 2013 “red line” that stated that Syria’s use of chemical weapons would mean US military action. Reiterating his “America First” stance, Trump argued that Syria is not the US’ fight. While in office, Trump ordered the launch of a military strike in 2017 on a Syrian government airbase in response to a chemical weapons attack that killed dozens of civilians. His decision at the time marked a dramatic shift in his position on whether the US should take military action against the Syrian president’s regime — which Trump opposed during his first campaign for president.
