0:24Now PlayingPresident Donald Trump on Friday defended a U.S.-brokered pause to Turkey's military assault in Syria, even as fighting continued near the Syria-Turkey border. During an event at the White House, Trump told reporters that Kurdish forces were "very happy" with Turkey's cease-fire.
"I just spoke to President (Recep Tayyip) Erdogan of Turkey. We're doing very, very well with Turkey," Trump said. Turkey is "back to the full pause" on their military operation targeting Kurdish forces in northern Syria, Trump said.
The Kurds "are very happy about the way things are going," Trump added. "We've taken control of the oil in the Middle East ... the oil that everybody was worried about."
