US could deploy more troops to Syria: Pentagon chief

‘US Defense Secretary Ashton Carter has called on President Barack Obama to do more on Syria, saying the United States could send more troops to the Arab country.

Carter made the remarks this week during an ABC News interview aboard the USS Theodore Roosevelt in the South China Sea, days after Obama ordered the deployment of dozens of Special Operations Forces (SOF) to Syria. Carter’s interview was broadcast on Sunday.
