Germany will provide €300 million ($326 million) in humanitarian aid to Syrians through the United Nations and select organizations, Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock announced ahead of an EU-led donor conference in Brussels.
More than half of the funds will directly assist people in Syria without involving the country’s transitional government. The aid will support food, healthcare, emergency shelters, and protective measures for vulnerable groups, according to Germany’s foreign ministry. Additionally, Syrian refugees and host communities in Jordan, Lebanon, Iraq, and Turkey will receive support.
Baerbock emphasized the necessity of an inclusive political process for Syria’s peaceful future. "As Europeans, we stand together for the people of Syria, for a free and peaceful Syria," she stated.
She also urged the transitional government to investigate the killing of hundreds of civilians in Alawite villages and hold those responsible accountable.
Recent violent clashes in Syria’s coastal region between loyalists of deposed President Bashar al-Assad and the country’s new Islamist rulers have led to over 1,000 deaths, according to a war monitoring group.
Germany’s continued commitment to humanitarian assistance underscores Europe's role in addressing Syria’s prolonged crisis.
