Humanitarian coordinator urges donors to stay the course and keep supporting Syrian people
The UN has urged the UK not to go ahead with expected significant cuts in aid to Syria next week, warning that the move could further destabilise the wartorn country and backfire on Britons.
The warning from the UN’s chief humanitarian coordinator, Mark Lowcock, comes before a high-profile donor conference on Syria at which the organisers are looking for $10bn, the largest ever appeal for Syria.
