UNIAN

In 2014, there were nearly 60 million refugees worldwide, with more than half of them being children.

Most people were forced from their homes because of the conflict in Syria.

According to the UN High Commissioner for Refugees Antonio Guterres "this is a world where indeed unpredictability and impunity are rules of the game. This is a world where there is no effective leadership."
