“Syria is a devastated country, it lies in ruins and it is broken. So winning the peace will be very difficult”, Jean-Marie Guéhenno, Senior Fellow, Carnegie Council for Ethics in International Affairs; UN Under-Secretary-General for Peacemaking Operations (2000-2008), comments. What Syria truly needs is not mechanical restoration, but real reconciliation and much work of the political institutions. By his words, Europe will support Syria only if it is sure that money will benefit all the population of the country, and not only its ruling circles.
