Bernard Hudson, the former director of counterterrorism at the CIA, joins Al Jazeera's live coverage. Speaking about US foreign policy under the incoming Trump administration, Hudson emphasized that the president-elect is unlikely to escalate tensions or initiate new wars in the Middle East. He highlighted Trump's previous stance on avoiding deeper involvement in Syria and referenced statements from the president-elect and his national security advisor, indicating a potential reduction—but not a complete withdrawal—of US troops in northern Iraq, where they are assisting Kurdish forces in the counter-ISIL mission.
