Hundreds of public figures call on the Pope to intervene to lift the coercive measures imposed on Syria

More than 500 personalities from all over the world called on Pope Francis, Pope of the Vatican, to make an effort to lift the unjust and coercive economic measures imposed by Western countries on the Syrian people.

In a letter to Pope Francis, these figures made it clear that the unjust coercive measures have caused a human tragedy that tends to lead to a catastrophic situation in Syria if it is not dealt with quickly.

The signatories, some of them of Syrian origins, of the letter stated that the terrorist war and the sanctions have caused the suffering of the Syrian people due to the lack of food and other humanitarian supplies.

The signatories said that Syria before 2011 was one of the most productive countries in wheat and food in the Middle East .It is also known for its  rich history and  culture  Syrian .

 

They highlighted in their letter the report prepared by the United Nations Special Rapporteur on human rights Elena Dohan on the 29th of last December who called for the lifting of these unilateral coercive measures.

The signatories said: “We have no doubt about the Pope’s ability to be a strong defender of peace and justice for the Syrian people.”

The signatories concluded their message by saying that Syria is a wonderful country with a rich history and culture and known for coexistence among its various components.
