Geneva peace talks ‘best chance of a future for Syria’s children'

The G8’s confirmation that the Geneva II peace conference will definitely go ahead is finally some good news for Syria’s children, says aid agency World Vision.

“These talks represent the best chance Syria’s children have had in more than two years for a future free from fear and violence,” said Anita Delhaas-van Dijk, World Vision’s National Director in Lebanon. "Including all relevant parties, however, is vital so the G8 pledge is a welcome first step, and we hope they can use their collective influence to bring all parties to the table in Geneva.”
