Syrian Coalition: UN Security Council Resolutions Will Test the Credibility of the International Community

Syrian Coalition: UN Security Council Resolutions Will Test the Credibility of the International Community

Nora Al Ameer, vice president of the Syrian Coalition, said that resolutions to be passed during the UN Security Council session to be held today to discuss Assad’s use of toxic gases against civilians will be a test for the credibility of the international community. “This session will provide an opportunity for the international community to restore the confidence of the Syrian people, who have been massacred by barrel bombs and lately by toxic gases that left 450 civilian casualties and claimed the lives of 21 people, mostly children and women.” Khalid Saleh, head of the Media Office, called previously on the international community to shoulder its responsibility and “put an end to the regime’s use of barrel bombs filled with poison gas to kill the Syrian people amid the world’s silence. The aim of the Syrian Revolution was not the handover of Assad’s chemical weapons. However, the world’s silence towards the Assad regime’s use of this new kind of barrel bombs, considered to be banned chemical weapons, makes the Syrian people question the international community’s commitment to making the region void of chemical weapons. Syrians feel that the purpose of these conventions is not to save human lives, but to force Assad into a political aim in the region.” Saleh also stresses that the international community must work to restore the confidence of the Syrian people through the implementation of principles of human rights adopted by the international community in Geneva. These principles were meant to guarantee the protection of human rights from any possible authoritarian attempts to violate them.” Experts said that the chlorine used in the attacks is liquid substance widely used in factories, laboratories, and to manufacture some household cleaning products. However, when it is dispersed and mixed with air by the explosion of the bomb it evaporates and change into gas that when it is inhaled causes severe irritation in the nose and eyes, skin ulcers, and significant damage to the respiratory system that may lead to death if it was inhaled in large amounts.

Preserving independence and national sovereignty and maintaining the Syrian people’s unity within the same Syrian soil
is one of the critical pillars of the Syrian Coalition. The Coalition aims to overthrow the Assad regime along with all its
symbols and pillars. It also aims to dismantle its security apparatus and hold accountable those involved in crimes
against Syrians. In addition, it seeks to achieve a transition to a pluralistic, democratic and civil Syria.
