US Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard, one of the Democratic Party contenders in the 2020 presidential race, said American armed forces must leave Iraq and Syria, instead of pushing towards war.

"End #TrumpsWar now. Remove our troops from Iraq and Syria," the politician from Hawaii tweeted on Saturday.

Gabbard, a longtime critic of US-led interventions and regime-change wars, had earlier argued that killing Soleimani "was an act of war, with no authorization or declaration of war from Congress."

US President Donald Trump "has put us in a state of war with Iran and has seriously escalated this tit-for-tat conflict, pushing us deeper into an endless quagmire," she said in a video address. Later on Fox & Friends, Gabbard stressed that by approving the raid Trump was "clearly violating the Constitution."
