UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon said he is urging Russia and the US to use their influence in Syria to ensure humanitarian aid can be delivered, during a press conference in New York on Wednesday.
The United Nations trucks are ready to deliver assistance and getting aid to the civilians is crucial, as "millions of people are still starving" Ban said. He asked Russia and the US to ensure both, the government and the armed groups, are ready to "fully cooperate", so a political solution can be found.
According to the UN Secretary General this is a crucial opportunity, but the appropriate time to start a dialogue between the opposing parties has to be determined, so negotiations prove to be effective.
A ceasefire in Syria was brokered by Russia and the US, which started on Monday, and is being renewed every 48 hours.
