Germany has pledged €300 million in aid for Syrians, as announced by Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock ahead of an EU-led donor conference in Brussels.
This funding will be channeled through the United Nations and selected organizations, with more than half of the amount directed towards those inside Syria.
The funds will address critical needs such as food, healthcare, emergency shelters, and protection for vulnerable groups.
In addition to those inside Syria, the pledge will also support Syrian refugees and host communities in neighboring countries including Jordan, Lebanon, Iraq, and Türkiye.
Baerbock emphasized the importance of an inclusive political process to ensure a peaceful future for Syria.
She also called for accountability regarding recent civilian deaths in Syria’s coastal region, following violent clashes between loyalists of deposed President Bashar al-Assad and Islamist groups.
As part of Germany’s commitment to a free and peaceful Syria, Baerbock reaffirmed Europe's unity in supporting Syrians during these turbulent times.
The pledge comes amid an increasingly dire humanitarian situation, with thousands of lives lost and many more at risk.
