BEIRUT, LEBANON (8:00 P.M.) - The U.K. Defense Minister Tobias Ellwood rejected the recent comments by U.S. President Donald Trump on defeating the Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL/IS/Daesh) in Syria.

After Trump tweeted that “we have defeated ISIS (Islamic State) in Syria,” Tobias Ellwood replied “I strongly disagree.”

“(Islamic State) has morphed into other forms of extremism and the threat is very much alive,” the junior minister said in a tweet.

The U.S. military has already begun withdrawing their forces from Syria; however, no timetable has been set for their troops to completely leave the country.
