In a special edition of HARDtalk, Zeinab Badawi is in Brussels to
speak to Lebanon’s Foreign Minister Gebran Bassil. He has
travelled to the city to tell EU officials that his country has
been overwhelmed by Syrian refugees. More than one million
Syrians live in Lebanon – many of them have fled the oppression
and brutality of the Assad government. So why then does his
political party have an alliance with Hezbollah that backs the
Syrian President?
