Brussels – The\u00a0 EU pledged 2.12 billion euros\u00a0in aid for 2024 and 2025 to support<\/strong> the people of Syria and those who have left the country to save themselves from hunger and war by taking refuge in neighboring states. The measures taken by the EU Commission were at the heart of the debate at\u00a0the Supporting the Future of Syria and the Region conference. The European Union, with this new allocation, confirms its commitment to pursuing UN resolution 2254,<\/a> calling for an immediate ceasefire and the start of political negotiations<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The situation in Syria is worrying, with the civil war continuing for 13 years and the population suffering from hunger and destruction. In this context, the EU wants to continue to support the Syrian people: 560 million euros are earmarked for people in need inside the country, while an equal amount will go\u00a0to people who have fled Syria and found refuge in Iraq, Lebanon, and Jordan<\/strong>. The situation in these countries is not easy either: the immense refugee camps and the difficult conditions in the host nations do not make life easy for those who have fled. Finally, another billion euros will go towards\u00a0helping Syrian communities who have found refuge in Turkey.<\/p>\n

According to Janez Lenar\u010di\u010d<\/strong>, the European Commissioner for International Cooperation and Humanitarian Aid, some 16.7 million people in Syria\u00a0need<\/a>\u00a0life-saving support<\/strong>, <\/strong>half of whom are\u00a0women and children. Josep Borrell<\/strong>, <\/strong>the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, points the finger at\u00a0Syrian President Bashar al-Assad<\/strong><\/strong>,who is responsible for this situation: “The Syrian regime continues to perpetrate widespread human rights violations creating serious obstacles to the political process.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
