“Atrocities [have been committed in Syria] on a scale not seen since the Holocaust.”
Is there a way for the world to end this catastrophe? International law expert Toby Cadman, who submitted a report to the International Criminal Court on Jan. 15, summed up this crisis aptly in his speech at the conference: “Atrocities [have been committed in Syria] on a scale not seen since the Holocaust.” Panelists stressed that a Syrian-led process of negotiations, with Assad, the Syrian opposition, Iran, and Russia at the table, is going to be the only way in which an effective peace agreement will stick. Only extensive international support for refugees and those still caught in the conflict on the ground will bring an end to this crisis.
