The EP´s foreign affairs committee has condemned the alleged use of chemical weapons in Syria and warned that a permanent political solution must be found despite any military action taken.
Parliament has especially been concerned about the situation of the refugees forced to flee the country. The EU has allocated more than €300 million in funding to help relieve the humanitarian crisis in Syria and MEPs also gave their backing earlier this year to adding €19.5 million for food, shelter and medical supplies.
