Syrian businessman Ayman Asfari, CEO of Petrofac,on international intervention in Syria

Syrian born businessman Ayman Asfari, CEO of Petrofac, on why international intervention is needed in his homeland.

After four years of civil war Syria is all but destroyed.  At least 220,000 killed and half of the entire population forced from their homes and still the world's great powers argue over a response. Stephen Sackur talks to one of the world's wealthiest Syrians, Ayman Asfari, an exile based in Britain and founder and boss of the Petrofac oil services corporation. Behind the scenes he has lobbied hard for a more effective international intervention in his homeland, but what would that look like?
