The Trump administration remains open to working with Iran and Russia in order to end the Syrian war, Sean Spicer, the White House spokesman, said at the daily news briefing.
“The United States remains open to working together with both Russia and Iran to find a solution that leads to a stable and united Syria,” Spicer. “But in order for us to work together to bring an end to the violence in Syria, Russia and Iran need to acknowledge the atrocities of the Assad regime and use their influence to stop them.”
It looks that this was the first time when the Trump administration declared a readiness to work with Tehran and Damascus over a possible peace solution in Syria. However, the US attitude towrads the situation remains pretty hostile because it continues to blame the Syrian-Iranian-Russian alliance as the main side responsible for civilian casualties in Syria.
