Abdulaziz Yunus who is responsible for external relations of the Democratic Forces of Syria also confirmed the US military aid.
“American officials both in the press and in the course of our meetings declared that they will continue to help us. We intend to continue cooperation with the United States on the issue of fighting terrorism,” Yunus told Sputnik Turkey.
The Co-Chairman of the Council of Democratic Syria, which is composed of representatives of the Party of Democratic Union, People's Protection Units and the SDF, İlhan Ehmed commented on the issue saying that the council is working together with the US to fight the terrorists.
“We hope that the new US administration will continue to support our cooperation in the fight against terrorists. It is exactly this struggle that will return stability and peace to Syria,” Ehmed said.
Kurdish fighters dominate the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), a collective that also includes the Syrian Arab Coalition, which is made up of fighters predominantly from local Arab areas.
American-supplied armored vehicles were delivered to Syrian fighters on Tuesday, but Col. John Dorrian said they were transferred to the Syrian Arab Coalition, not the SDF. Another of the SDF's Kurdish components, the Popular Defense Units (YPG) also denied receiving arms from the US-led coalition.
