Syria and Russia: Washington is impeding the delivery of aid to detainees in the Rukban camp in light of the increased risks of Corona

The Syrian and Russian coordinating bodies on the return of the Syrian displaced people reaffirmed that the United States of America impedes the delivery of humanitarian aid to the displaced Syrians in Rakban camp in Al-Tanf area occupied by American forces, and they desperately need them in light of the spread of the epidemic as Covid 19.

In a joint statement today, the two bodies demanded a guarantee of safe and unconditional exit for those wishing to be displaced from Rakban camp to their permanent places of residence and to end the occupation of Al-Tanf area.

The statement pointed out that the only obstacle to dissolving Rukban camp and returning the displaced to their areas is the false US position that claims its commitment to internationally recognized human values ​​and public freedoms but does nothing to respect them, stressing that “the United States pretends that it is ready to solve the refugee problem in the camp in exchange for delivering humanitarian aid to it In an effort to provide all that is necessary for their armed terrorist groups in that region.

The statement stressed the failure of all attempts to cooperate with the American side and the lack of trust in Washington at a time when Syria and Russia are making efforts to urgently get rid of Rakban camp and dissolve it as soon as possible and focus attention on fighting the outbreak of the Corona virus emerging in Syria, stressing that the illegal presence of the American and its allies on Syrian soil is considered The main obstacle to securing a good health status for its citizens.

The statement pointed out that the American and European behavior in Syria confirms the intentions of Western countries to block the establishment of work with a regular schedule for providing humanitarian assistance with the approval of the Syrian government and the focus of those countries on their interest in cross-border channels to support terrorist hotspots and a destructive approach of imposing new sanctions against Syria to strangle its economy.

Thousands of Syrians displaced by terrorism live in difficult conditions, and lack of health care, food and water, in light of their detention by the American occupation forces and its terrorist militias illegally in Al-Tanf area that prevent them from leaving the camp through the humanitarian corridors that were opened by the Syrian and Russian sides Since last year.
