UNHCR chief says safe zones would not work in Syria

„Frankly, I don‘t see in Syria the conditions“ to create successful safe zones, U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees Filippo Grandi said at a news conference in Beirut.

„With the fragmentation, the number of actors, the presence of terrorist groups, it‘s not the right place to think of that solution,“ he added.
