Sanctions keep Syrians under rubble

Today, the United States of America is the hub of global savagery, the source of absolute evil, and the real repository of terrorism that usurps peoples. After years of directing armed terrorist groups and seeking funding from Persian Gulf oil farms to destroy Syria, its infrastructure and foundations of the state’s entity, strike its service institutions and logistical equipment, provide a complete cover for DAESH and support it to tear the nation’s map through religious fascism, the American occupation sits on the Syrian oil wells, relying on its cheap tools to steal it.

It is truly a continuation of organized terrorism especially today as the US illegal sanctions and blockade on relief operations in Syria killed Syrians under the rubble in the aftermath of one of the most devastating earthquakes the levant has seen in more than 100 years.

The accumulated effects resulting from the Western sanctions imposed on Syria since 2011 constituted a major obstacle to the rapid response of civil defense teams and medical teams to rescue those trapped under the rubble of hundreds of housing units that collapsed on top of their residents in each of Aleppo, Latakia, Tartous and Hama.

In the current talk about the responsibility of Western sanctions for exacerbating the suffering of the Syrians as a result of the recent earthquake, unfortunately, the world needed a catastrophic event, such as the recent earthquake, to fathom that Western sanctions do increase the suffering and pain of Syrians.
