Concerning the situation in Syria, one thing is clear: it is that the war is whining down, asserts Ramzy Ezzeldin Ramzy, Deputy Special Envoy for Syria of the United Nations (2014-2019). “The problem with Syria has always been the fact that it is a conflict at three levels, which are a local, domestic level, regional rivalries and the global level,” he says. At each of these three, there is an understanding that the conflict must be ended, but the main problem is how to do that.
