Who can Save Syria?


The G20 Summit set in St Petersburg or the Syrian government!


The situation on the ground of Syria is very complex and any attack on the place will not favor the interests of any country as it will only bring destruction. The country badly needs a peaceful solution, a plan of action that can ease the current humanitarian crisis.

The chemical attack in Syria was a disgraceful humanitarian calamity that has brought suffering and displacement among the people which is unparalleled in recent history. The people of Syria are under critical situation, after getting driven by severe desperation, the imminent air strikes have added their fear. Thus, an ever-growing number of Syrians are seeking sanctuary in neighboring countries. Millions of people have displaced and have fled abroad. Syrian people no longer trust any role of their own administration that is helping them bring their own misery to an end.

The way to save Syria is not “War” but “No to War”

Leaders must not squander this opportunity of working together. There is an immediate requirement to try and prevent yet further escalation of this appalling crisis. Deterring future chemical attack is necessary, but taking the support of war should be the politics of last resort. Supporting attack from America will further bring miseries and destruction, thus the best path forward is a political solution.

Moreover, America should initiate war only when it is attacked by any other country or when American interests are threatened. Taking military solution will add no good Syria and will further pave the way for all the terrorists to distress the country.

Syria is not the official agenda, the main concern is the use of internationally banned chemical weapon. So, all five Permanent Members of the UN Security Council should plan for the referral of the situation in Syria. The crisis has put the G20 and UN Security Council to an ultimate test where they need to prove that they are well equipped to face all the challenges, holding in hand the account of future generation.
