UN supports us getting aid for refugees: <\/b>UN High Commissioner for Refugees Filippo Grandi pledged to campaign for Cairo to receive more bilateral development aid to support its efforts in hosting refugees at a press conference on Monday, following his meeting with President Abdel Fattah El Sisi, at the end of his two-day visit to Egypt, reports the Guardian<\/a>. Egypt currently hosts a reported 242,000 refugees, and the value of UNHCR programs in the country in 2017 ranged from USD 40-50 mn<\/a>, a figure described by Grandi as \u201cinsufficient.\u201d Saying that he, like so many refugees, would do \u201canything\u201d to escape a holding camp of the kind set up in Libya, Grandi praised Egypt for its determination not to set up such camps and urged the world\u2019s wealthiest nations to offer sufficient funding to support the efforts of host countries.<\/p>\n
