EU to consider ‘all options’ to aid rebels as Syria asks for humanitarian help


EU leaders have called on their foreign ministers to consider all options to support the Syrian opposition and put pressure on the Syrian leadership. It comes as the Syrian FM blames sanctions for the country’s humanitarian crisis, asking for UN aid.

“Nothing is off the table,” British PM David Cameron warned during the recent EU summit, sending a message to President Assad and urging for an early review and possible lifting of arms embargo’s against Syria.

Britain demands “the speediest possible” political transition in Syria and is ready to work with the opposition to achieve that, Cameron said.

"to work on all options to support and help the opposition and to enable greater support for the protection of civilians”
