Contributing sentiments towards policy:

62% : While Syria's humanitarian crisis has only deepened one year after the devastating earthquakes, he noted good news -- the Syrian Government's recent extension of authorization for the UN to use the Bab al-Hawa, Bab al-Salam and Al-Ra'ee border crossings.
56% : "Yet access challenges are constraining humanitarian workers' ability to safely deliver essential assistance and to directly engage with affected populations," he said.
56% : He welcomed the decision by the Government of Syria earlier in February to renew its permission for the UN to use the Bab al-Salam and Al Ra'ee crossings to deliver humanitarian assistance for an additional three months, until 13 May 2024.
56% : The only sustainable solution is a Syrian-owned and Syrian-led political process, under the auspices of the United Nations, with the meaningful participation of women.
55% : With no consensus among the Syrian parties, he issued formal invitations for a ninth round in Geneva in late April, appealing to them to respond positively -- and to all key international stakeholders to support the UN as a facilitator and refrain from interfering regarding a venue the Syrian parties themselves had formally agreed.
55% : He highlighted that the UN and its humanitarian partners moved more than 5,000 trucks carrying essential aid through these crossings in 2023.
55% : He further welcomed the Syrian Government's decision to extend authorization for the UN and its specialized agencies to operate through the Bab Al-Hawa, Bab Al-Salam, and Al-Ra'ee border crossings, providing more predictability for their operations.
54% : Citing the lack of political progress, he underscored that Syria deserves more attention from the international community.
53% : Welcoming the Syrian Government's decision to renew the permission granted to the United Nations to use the Bab al-Hawa, Bab al-Salam and Al-Ra'ee crossings for another six and three months, respectively, he emphasized that a Syrian-led and Syrian-owned political process, facilitated by the United Nations, is the only viable approach to ending the crisis.
47% : Over the past month alone, the Israeli Air Force has repeatedly attacked international airports in Damascus and Aleppo, which serve as the main entry of UN aid into Syria.
