The UN powerless against the Syrian conflict



The watchword was apparently given to the 17 members countries of the International Support Group for Syria to not make much of this August 1st. Yet it's symbolic of the UN's failure to reach a diplomatic solution, as evidenced by the ongoing fighting in Aleppo.
The special envoy to Syria, Staffan de Mistura, said that rumors attempted to resign, has nonetheless announced the possibility of a resumption of talks in late August. And all this while the three preconditions he posed: the cessation of hostilities, the delivery of humanitarian aid and the political transition, are only a very distant memory.
The UN is finally reduced to work on the only leverage he has left: humanitarian aid. But the organization announced plans to monitor the humanitarian corridors decided by Russia plays an extremely dangerous card for its credibility by accepting to be dictating the rules by Moscow.
