Sounds like an ultimatum
Putin has been meeting with Arab and Turkish leaders, and he has issued an ultimatum.
All foreign troops should leave Syria. This would include Russian troops if the Syrian government says so. (But so far the Syrian government wants both Persian and Russian troops as helpers.)
His ultimatum doesn't have a date or an Or Else, but I have a feeling those are coming soon.
Ideally the Or Else would include removing DC and NYC from the earth, but I doubt that Putin wants to go that far.
