Independent UN institution in Geneva to investigate the fate of missing persons in Syria
Bern, 25.04.2024 – On 24 April 2024, the UN General Assembly approved funding for an independent institution to investigate cases of missing persons in Syria, to be based in Geneva. As part of its peace policy, Switzerland is firmly committed to clarifying the fate of detained and missing persons. In doing so, it is making a significant contribution to dealing with the past, which is central to peace processes – including in Syria. Switzerland therefore welcomes the international community’s decision for the institution to begin its work in International Geneva in 2024.
