FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda During a meeting with Valerie Amos, the UN Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs on Saturday, Muallem urged the international body to “intervene to ensure (US and EU sanctions) are lifted,” SANA reported.
US and EU sanctions “are responsible for the sufferings of Syrian citizens,” Muallem added.
For his part, Amos said the UN “will continue to provide humanitarian assistance in coordination with the Syrian government.”
The Syrian foreign minister also called on the United Nations to “contribute its efforts to rebuild infrastructure and hospitals that were destroyed by armed terrorist groups”.
Syria has been experiencing unrest since March 2011. Many people, including large numbers of security forces, have been killed in the turmoil.
The Syrian government says that the chaos is being orchestrated from outside the country, and that certain Western states and their regional allies such as Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey have been trying to fuel the turmoil.
The repercussions of the ongoing unrest have deeply affected Syrians with hundreds of thousands of people now suffering from a lack of food, shelter and medical assistance.
The United States and its allies have imposed sanctions on Syria over the unrest in the country.
