Secretary Mike Pompeo defends deal brokered with Turkey to temporarily halt military operations in Syria as shelling reportedly continues
The secretary of state defended the ceasefire that he and Vice President Mike Pence brokered with Turkey and responded to criticism from both Kurdish fighters and Republicans on the Hill, on ABC's"This Week."
The U.S. and Turkey reached an agreement on Thursday to"pause" Turkey's military operations in northern Syria for five days to allow Kurdish forces to withdraw from a buffer zone. If the withdrawal is complete after that time, Turkey will halt its operation and the U.S. will lift sanctions on Turkish officials.
