President Donald Trump is carrying out his threat to"decimate" the Turkish economy, in the wake of his decision to withdraw U.S. troops from northern Syria.
The president had no public events on Monday and has remained holed up in the White House, taking to Twitter to defend his decision of pulling U.S. troops from Syria. And as many people are witnessing disturbing scenes of mass atrocities and executions, Trump also tweeted that Islamic State prisoners could be"easily recaptured by Turkey and European nations."
"Turkey's unilateral action was unnecessary and impulsive. President Erdogan bears full responsibility for its consequences, to include a potential ISIS resurgence, possible war crimes, and a growing humanitarian crisis. The bilateral relationship between our two countries has also been damaged," Esper said in his statement.

Steel sanctions will do nothing....not certain other sanctions will help. I would really like to know what that call sounded like between him and Turkey....
realDonaldTrump I bet sanctions on Turkey will result in some damaging insight on conversations between Erdagon and Trump.
