The number of Syrian refugees in other countries amounts to 267,000

The number of Syrian refugees in other countries is at least 267,000, but only 137,000 are registered and receive humanitarian aid, said today the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR). "We have registered Syrian figures, we know those in the waiting list, and then know the figures that estimate governments, who believe. So dance numbers but the figure may be at least 267,000 "he said at a press conference Melissa Fleming, spokeswoman for the UNHCR. For example, in Jordan, the government estimates that have entered the country Syrians 140,000 refugees, but only 50,000 have registered with UNHCR and therefore receive humanitarian aid. Another example is Algeria. The Algerian Executive recently announced that between 10,000 and 25,000 Syrians in the country, although only 70 have registered with UNHCR. However, the UN agency believes that many of them are housed in schools and public buildings, so they would need assistance, although they have not requested it. Other countries that have "emerged" recently as recipients of Syrian refugees are Egypt and Morocco. According to UNHCR records, 1,305 Syrians may be refugees in Egypt since July and 400 in Morocco. With regard to the countries surrounding Syria, in Iraq the number of refugees continues to rise and now reaches 11,465 registered. Moreover, Baghdad is hosting a fellow returnees living in Syria. Of the 80,000 Iraqis living under the regime of Bashar al-Assad, 20,000 have returned to their country of origin. In Lebanon, 34,000 Syrians are receiving humanitarian aid, "but estimates indicate that the number of refugees in the country is much higher," the spokesman specified. Fleming said that for now no refugee camps in Lebanon because "local host families seems to work, but we are prepared to establish one when needed, because we know that hospitality is reaching saturation levels." Indeed, the UNHCR had to open a refugee camp in Jordan, 10 kilometers from the border with Syria, home to 5,000 people but is prepared to expand and accommodate 150,000. Fleming consulted because it is not already expanded, given the constant influx of refugees, said: "We do not assume it's inevitable." This field is hosting refugees who were in transit camps, one of which was designed for 800 people, but housed 8,000. Fleming assumes that the shelter needs will increase in coming days because many Syrian middle class or upper middle class, so far paid their savings on hotels in Jordan and Lebanon, have run out of resources and will have to find humanitarian aid. In Turkey, some 70,000 people have sought refuge, a number that increases daily, as the flow of refugees from Aleppo, where for a few days the army and armed opposition groups fighting for control of that city, located in the north and near the Turkish border. Indeed, the UNHCR reported that with the help of the Red Crescent are trying to assist residents of Aleppo who have been unable or unwilling to flee. Most are refugees in schools or in university housing and lack everything you need to survive. Fleming took the UNHCR office in Aleppo, which is not working to their full capacity because of insecurity, can not help the 200,000 people estimated to have left the city in recent days. In addition to refugees, the UN estimates that there are a million and a half of Syrians displaced within their own country, and that at least 17,000 people have died in the war.

Terrorism and China are on the agenda of Hillary in Africa

The increasing threats to security posed by the actions of Islamic militants and the growing influence of China across Africa are high on the agenda of the 11-day trip that Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton began the mainland on Tuesday. Clinton began his last marathon abroad, which will take at least six African countries, among them the world's newest nation, the Southern Sudan, and Uganda, Kenya, Malawi and South Africa The journey begins with the Senegal, where, according to U.S. officials, it will deliver a speech warning the African countries about the dangers of investment China, which many experts can enrich China at the expense of Africa.She will tell you that proper development can reduce the appeal of extremist groups are gaining momentum in Nigeria and Mali and Somalia still threaten. Not to mention China by name, Hillary will ask leaders Africans carefully consider projects proposed by foreign countries that will require full accountability and that can encourage corruption, to the detriment of the people some of the poorest countries in the world, according to sources spoke on condition of anonymity. The United States is increasingly concerned with the growing interest of China in Africa, a result of China's enormous need for energy and natural resources to fuel its economy. U.S. officials, among them Hillary herself, has expressed reservations about the Chinese practice of investing in huge infrastructure projects and construction that only employ Chinese workers and ignore human rights and democratic principles. A spokesman for the State Department, Victoria Nuland, said in a statement that Clinton will use his speech in Dakar Senegal to enhance democracy and "emphasize the partnership approach in the U.S." across Africa. From Senegal, Secretary of State will go to southern Sudan, Uganda and Kenya. 

Kristen Stewart was right to apologize (but not for the reasons you think)

Kristen Stewart Robert Pattinson misled with director Rupert Sanders. The sitcom continues: Pattinson would have left the marital home and he wanted a face to face with Rupert Sanders . Why Kristen Stewart has had to speak publicly on the subject? Would he have been the same in France?Responses Christophe Carron, associate editor of "Here". Swinging pictures of Kristen Stewart currently playing around with Rupert Sanders, " Us Weekly "has managed what remains, for now, one of the best journalistic coups of the summer of 2012 people in the United States. The characters involved (Kristen Stewart and Rob Patz) are at the zenith of their fifteen minutes of fame, the scenario (a young actress with the director much older, married with family) is a classic dramas and, not to spoil, there is material, a beautiful series of pictures showing the truth about of "Us". Ah the photos (which only a part was published) ... It is their presence that prompted Kristen Stewart to immediately admit his relationship with Rupert Sanders. Without them, and despite the reputation of seriousness of "Us Weekly", the actress and the director of "Snow White and the hunter" could deny this little infidelity. The wall, Kristen had to split to a statement expressing his regret at having deceived Robert and publicly apologize.

Torque, a marketing object

The most liberal-libertines can always argue that the actress does what she wants from her loves and you do not have to judge his choice in the matter. They will of course because it is no longer time under leagues. If Stewart had to express themselves, it is because his marriage is a marketing object integral to the promotion of the saga "Twilight". The film series is based on the love story of Bella and Edward, extended story in real life by the Stewart-Pattinson love affair. RobPatz deceive, it is also deceiving his audience, to whom it sells to its length interviews sentimental treacle. There was a gap between what the actress publicly demonstrates, this image built as his career and his private life. Kristen Stewart and would not have staged his public life, she would have had no apology to make and could have mistaken that she wants when she wants, without having to apologize if she got shoot by a photographer ...

In France, a different situation

The same thing could it happen in France? An example: a top athlete, adored by the whole country, present in numerous commercials, herald of values ​​such as loyalty, righteousness, honor, respect, commitment ... would be taken by hand in the bag trying to deceive his wife, at random, a young actress. Imagine a magazine photograph them together and gets the headlines. This sport would he take the trouble to write a statement apologizing for not having respected the values ​​they defend publicly (sometimes blow checks from generous sponsors)? Obviously not.Despite the obviousness of the situation and evidence by the image that could produce the newspaper, the only thing that athlete would prepare an assignment would be to attack the magazine in question violated his right to the image and private life. The newspaper, in full procedure would be silenced, as all the other titles that would not dare, the coup, to venture on this slippery slope. Everyone would be silent, the magazine behind the scoop align tens of thousands of dollars and the athlete in question would continue to quietly defend publicly against hard cash, the values ​​it does not meet in private ... 

The French model cons-productive for the stars

Two models of society ... Which is fairer? For everyone to see. But there is one thing that many forget: the French model is completely against-productive for the celebrities. Better public communication that want to hide the truth. An apology is not very pleasant at the time, but they have the merit of enabling the public to move on ( remember Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky, Hugh Grant and Divine ...). The silence, however, merely fuels the worst of the worst rumors and fantasies.
