As delivered
Thank you very much, Mr. President.
Complementing what Geir [Pedersen, Special Envoy for Syria] has just told you, I will cover four points today: firstly, the key water shortages in the north-east; secondly – again, as he began to describe – the ongoing economic crisis; third, the protection of civilians; and fourth, humanitarian access.
So let me start with the
water situation. We have not covered this in detail in my previous briefings to you, but there are a number of problems affecting the humanitarian situation now, which I thought we should draw to your attention.
