4 years ago#StopSanctionsOnSyrians🇸🇾 For the past 12 years, the Syrian people have been living under sanctions imposed by USA and many western countries, with only one hour of electricity per day, no fuel, no gas, no medicine, no medical aids available in the pharmacies. Yesterday we were in the middle of an earthquake measured by7.7 Richters, and all the Syrians ran out into the streets at 4:00 AM, it was heavily raining. A stormy night, some people slept out in the streets and more than 900 deaths were documented. Today, we expect the international community to lift its sanctions off the innocent Syrian people and to save them from the injustice and never ending suffering. We are in need of rubble removal vehicles/ equipment, fire trucks and ambulances. We are not third world people, we are from a civilized country that has provided humanity with a lot, but your sanctions are contradicted with international law, it's agains humanity, your sanctions were the reason for stopping the wheel of development, it's preventing us from building our country after the war, you punished the people and forced them to immigrate.
4 years ago💙 "I was hoping there were more people out there who knew how a totalitarian system works. That the totalitarian system does not have just one color, that it is a chameleon that can change it from day to day. While we are still cautiously checking the one that was there before, another one is growing that is out of control." - Karel Kryl -
