Syria is not safe yet for millions of refugees to start going back home, a Canadian minister cautioned during a visit to Lebanon on Wednesday. He spoke days after Lebanese officials announced a plan to start returning 15,000 Syrian refugees to their war-shattered country every month.
The remarks by Harjit Sajjan, Canada’s minister of international development, followed his tour of the region that also took him to Jordan, where he visited Syrian refugees living in tent settlements.
