Appointing the consultant, Shukria Mekdad, the wife of Faisal Mekdad, the deputy foreign minister of the Syrian regime and a powerful defender of the government’s war effort is not the best choice.
We believe that your honored organization can appoint a more credible and a less biased person for this position, considering the situation in Syria , hiring her can be worsening the state of mind for millions of Syrians who fled their homes during the last 6 years of continuous war.
