A ceasefire is critical, because the fighting serves the interests of the most brutal elements on both sides of the conflict. This includes the core leadership of President Bashar al-Assad’s regime, which is now supported by Hezbollah and Iraqi militias, as much as the ISIS, which is composed largely of non-Syrian fighters who are unconcerned about rebuilding the country or safeguarding its people’s future.
停火至关重要，因为战争只与冲突双方最残酷份子的利益相符。这其中包括总统巴沙尔·阿萨德政权的核心领导，阿萨德政权目前拥有黎巴嫩真主党、伊拉克民兵和伊拉克与叙利亚伊斯兰教国（ISIS）等团体的支持。ISIS成员大多由非叙利亚籍战士组成，他们不关心国家重建，也不关心保护叙利亚民众的未来。
