U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken emphasized the United Nations' crucial role in supporting Syria’s transition, advocating for an inclusive political process and humanitarian aid during a meeting with UN Special Envoy Geir Pedersen in Aqaba, Jordan.
U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken told UN Special Envoy Geir Pedersen that the United Nations must play a central role in Syria’s transition, especially in providing assistance and protecting minorities. Blinken highlighted the importance of a Syrian-led transition under U.N. Security Council Resolution 2254, which outlines key steps for a peaceful resolution.
Pedersen echoed Blinken's stance, calling for a credible political process that includes all communities across Syria and ensuring state institutions remain intact. He also stressed the urgency of delivering humanitarian aid swiftly to support the Syrian population.
Blinken’s meeting with Pedersen follows discussions in Turkey focused on preventing a resurgence of ISIS in Syria, amidst rapid developments that saw Syrian rebels gaining control in Damascus last week.
Blinken’s ongoing Middle East tour aims to solidify cooperation among Arab and Turkish partners, establishing a unified approach to guiding Syria’s political transition with principles of inclusivity and respect for minority rights.
