Merkel says situation in Aleppo is a 'disgrace' for West
ESSEN, Germany - German Chancellor Angela Merkel said Tuesday that it was a "disgrace" that the international community had been unable to alleviate the suffering in Syria's besieged city of Aleppo.
"Aleppo is a disgrace," she said in a speech to her conservative Christian Democratic Union (CDU) party.
"It is a disgrace that we have been unable to establish a humanitarian corridor, but we must continue to fight for one."
