Urge the Deputy asked for UN emergency relief coordinator Müller in the UN security Council to protect civilians in the Syrian Region of Idlib. For a month there are clinics to be fired.

Syria. Again Syria. 270,000 people in Idlib to escape. Since the beginning of the month there are 160 dead civilians, 25 attacks on hospitals. It is the fifth meeting of the UN security Council this month alone, and the UN aid workers no longer want to be helpless:

“you are all here, the Figures of this war,” says Deputy emergency relief coordinator, the German Ursula Müller. She says it with such emphasis, that the veterans of misery to look up in the hall. And then she counts, what we all know. The certainties of eight years of war: “you know that half of the Syrian population fled the country or in the country on the run.”

“killed, hundreds of thousands, millions of wounded,”

of Course, it all know. But Muller wants the world to know that know it all already long here in the security Council: “you know that dog were killed thousands of Syrians, millions more were injured.” Of course, you know it is here. “And you know, adds Müller, that currently, three million Syrians in Idlib are caught in the cross fire, some living under trees and plastic sheets in the middle of Nowhere”.

Only last week, your colleague, Mr Mark Lowcock suggested that hospitals are not random, but may be intentionally bombed from the air. Müller, the woman who organized emergency relief, but of sheer necessity and can’t help, turns to the security Council. Not more asking, but accusing: “Can not do this security Council anything if attacks on schools and hospitals be a war tactic that upset any more?”

Müller wants in the conflict in Idlib, a solution is found. (Archive, during a visit to Myanmar)

you look in the round, as you want to each of the 15 UN ambassadors to make the half-round table is personally responsible for the inability of the body to end with a voice of an eight year long war. And Muller is not ready yet: “there Is nothing more to say or to do if barrel bombs are randomly dropped on residential districts, a clear breach of international Law and applicable resolutions?”

the “man-made Disaster”

Müller, the emergency relief coordinator, has a lot of questions. A but, she says, in the end, it is the crucial question: “What will you do to protect the civilians in Idlib? It is the most recent example of a well-known, predictable, man-made disaster that is happening before our eyes.”

According to Müller 15 UN ambassadors talked. To say but they had nothing really New. Russia spoke of the fight against terrorists in Idlib. Syria from interfering in Syrian Affairs. The German Ambassador by the respect of international law. The fifth meeting of the security Council on the topic of Syria this month, and the question remained unanswered: “What will you do?”
