How has it been explained?
Mr Esper told reporters °æ±âÆ÷ÀåÀÌ»ç=°æ±âÆ÷ÀåÀÌ»çÁÁÀº°÷
in Washington: "There's been no decision whatsoever to leave Iraq. I don't know what that letter is... We're trying to find out where that's coming from, what Çö´ëÅ¥¹Ö ³Ã¿ÂÁ¤¼ö±â·»Å»½ºÅĵåÇü=Çö´ëÅ¥¹Ö ³Ã¿ÂÁ¤¼ö±â·»Å»½ºÅĵåÇü¸®ºä
that is.

"But there's been no ºÏ°¡Áµ¿¿ë´ÞÀÌ»ç
decision made to leave Iraq. Period."

The highest-ranking US soldier, Chairman ºÐ´çÆ÷ÀåÀÌ»ç
of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley, then appeared at a briefing, saying the letter was "a mistake".

He said it was a draft which ³²¼º¸íǰ·¹Çø®Ä«=³²¼º¸íǰ·¹Çø®Ä«
was poorly worded, had not been signed and should not have been released. It was being circulated for input, including from Iraqis.

"[The letter] was sent over to some key Iraqi military guys in order to get things co-ordinated for air movements, etc. Then it went from that guy's hands to another guy's hands and then it went to your hands. Now it's a Ä¿ÇǸӽŷ»Å»
kerfuffle."

Gen Milley reiterated that US troops were not leaving.
