Blinken issues warning on Islamic State capabilities in Syria
Secretary of State Anthony Blinken warned against Islamic State capabilities in Syria.
The speech came at an Anti-Corruption Champions Award Ceremony held at the Department of State on Monday, December 9th, 2024, after rebels overthrew president Bashar Al-Assad’s regime over the weekend.
In his speech, Mr Blinken stressed: "History shows how quickly moments of promise can descend into conflict and violence... ISIS will try to use this period to re-establish its capabilities".
The United States is “determined to not let that happen,” Mr Blinken added.
