Trump backs Kurdish offensive in Iran: ‘I’d be all for it’
President Trump said Thursday that he would back the Kurds if they launched an offensive inside Iran, as the militias have reportedly been in touch with the administration over a potential incursion into western Iran.
“I think it’s wonderful that they want to do that, I’d be all for it,” the president said during an interview with Reuters.
When asked if Washington would supply or has proposed air support for a potential Kurdish offensive against the Iranian regime, Trump told the news wire, “I can’t tell you that.”
Trump said the goal for the Kurds would be to “win.”
“If they’re going to do that, that’s good,” he said.
