The United States announced this Wednesday an emergency donation of $756 million in humanitarian aid for Syriafor the sake of continuing its “unshakable support” to the population of this country.

This was stated by US Permanent Representative to the UN Linda Thomas-Greenfield during a political and humanitarian briefing on Syria by the UN Security Council, where she specified that the indicated funding is $810 million, announced at a press conference. beginning of the year.

“Thanks to the generosity of the American people, the government USA has provided almost $15.7 billion in humanitarian assistance since the Syrian crisis began 11 years ago,” Thomas-Greenfield said during his speech at the plenary session Security Advisor.

“U.S. assistance benefits many of the 14.6 million people in Syria in need of humanitarian assistance, as well as the 5.6 million Syrian refugees and generous host communities in Turkey, Lebanon, Jordan, Iraq and Egypt,” he added.

The United States stressed the importance of “unhindered access” for humanitarian organizations throughout Syria and called for respect for the UN’s cross-border humanitarian assistance mechanism, which is “a lifeline for millions of people inside Syria.”

Thomas-Greenfield made sure that cross-border supplies of humanitarian supplies guaranteed life-saving relief, as they included food, medicine, and other “aid items”.

In this sense, he thanked countries that continue to “generously” host Syrian refugees, and stressed the danger of “premature or forced” return of refugees to Syria, which is prohibited by international law.

US asks NATO to continue supporting Ukraine

US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken assured that “positive signals” are coming from Ukraine’s counter-offensive in the Kherson and Kharkiv regions, and therefore called on NATO allies to continue to guarantee long-term support to Kyiv.

“It is vital that we remain united in support of Ukraine among allies and united for as long as necessary,” Blinken said at a press conference with NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg following their meeting at the alliance’s headquarters in Brussels.

The head of US diplomacy said that “positive signs” come from the ongoing offensive of Ukrainian forces in the south and east. “Ukraine has taken the brunt and is responding, with the support of partners and allies. The main factor is that they are fighting for their country, and many Russian forces don’t even know why they are there,” he said, stressing that this is a determining factor. .
