Syria

[Quotas for Syrian refugees and funding to U.N. programs on Syria] falls into a far broader issue. The question is what to do and nobody has the answer yet. There is a huge debate within the policy community here in the US and there is no consensus.

Europeans expect the US to do what's feasible and that is to provide more financial support to the struggling UN food aid and refugee assistance programmes, and to accept more people than it has so far.
