China to donate 10,000 tons of food to Syria refugees: FM
China will donate 10,000 tonnes of food to help ease the food shortages among Syria refugees, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi announced Thursday, according to Global Times.
Speaking at the Supporting Syria and the Region conference in London, Wang said China endorses this conference aimed at increasing humanitarian assistance to Syria, and hopes the gathering can make new efforts to realize peace and stability in Syria and help ease the humanitarian situation.
Solving the humanitarian problems in Syria, Wang said, necessitates not only emergency aid, but also needs to eliminate their root causes.
Currently, the most urgent task is to ensure the basic living conditions of the Syrian refugees and the displaced people, Wang noted.
