Lebanese PM Calls on Arab Brothers to Help Return of Syrian Refugees
BEIRUT (Xinhua) – Lebanese caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati has called on Arab brothers to assist Lebanon in securing a safe return of Syrian refugees to their homeland. “The return of refugees cannot be achieved if Arabs do not unite their efforts with the support of the international community, and in communication and dialogue with Syria,” a statement by Lebanon’s Council of Ministers quoted Mikati as saying during the Arab League summit in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Mikati said Lebanon “has never hesitated to open its doors to our displaced Syrian brothers out of faith in the brotherhood of the two peoples and the advancement of humanitarian considerations.”
