That is rather brazen line from Deep State propaganda. ISIS folded in months after Russian intervention but only expanded during years of US presence. There is no ISIS to speak of anymore.

LOL. Should Texan oil be a bargaining chip between US and Mexico? There are some Mexicans in Texas after all.
Don’t believe it.
Anyway, Russia/Syria need their forces for Idlib. That’s the battle that matters. They’re glad we’re defending the oil fields while they take care of Idlib.
SDF won Deir Azzor from ISIS.
