The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Emigrants, on Saturday, greatly welcomed the decision of the European Union, represented by Crisis Management Commissioner Janez Lenarcic, to transfer an additional amount of 15 million euros to help the most needy Lebanese and displaced Syrians, following Lenarcic’s meeting with Minister Bou Habib in Brussels yesterday.
In an issued statement, the Ministry thanked the European Commission for its ‘continued commitment to alleviate the suffering of the most underprivileged social segments,’ and hoped for ‘the continuation of dialogue and cooperation to reach sustainable solutions aimed at the safe and rapid return of displaced Syrians to their homes.’
