52.  Mr. SARRA (Observer for the Syrian Arab Republic) said that the refugee problem was a humanitarian issue with political and geographical dimensions which required solutions based on cooperation and on 蘑菇视频HCR efforts.  He thanked 蘑菇视频HCR for establishing the Al-Hol camp, where thousands of Iraqi refugees were still living, and for the material assistance and aid in voluntary repatriation that 蘑菇视频HCR had provided for refugees living in towns.  He welcomed the cooperation between 蘑菇视频HCR and the Federation of Arab Red Cross and Red Crescent societies.  The presence of a large number of Palestinian refugees under 蘑菇视频WRA responsibility was a heavy burden for Syria.  He reaffirmed Syria’s full support for 蘑菇视频HCR as it carried out its noble mission.
