The Canadian government has plans to provide over $28 million to help the return of Iraqi and Syrian people displaced in the country, Honourable Chrystia Freeland, the Minister of Foreign Affairs said on Friday 17th. Freeland said that she will attend an anti-Islamic State (ISIS) global coalition meeting with foreign ministers scheduled for March 22 in Washington D.C. In recent weeks Canada has demonstrated a more friendly approach to dealing with refugees and immigrants than its Trump-led neighbour. Canadian immigration Minister Ahmed Hussen announced on January 29 that Canada would offer temporary residency to people stranded in the U.S. as a result of President Donald Trump’s executive order on immigration.

Syria's President appreciated Iran’s support for the Arab country

Syria’s President Bashar al-Assad appreciated Iran’s support for the Arab country. He thanked the Islamic Republic of Iran for its political and economic support for Syria that greatly helped the Syrian people in their resistance against terrorist groups. For his part, Boroujerdi, who is visiting Syria at the head of a parliamentary delegation, underlined that Iran will always remain on Syria’s side in the fight against terrorism as “the future of Syria is vital for regional stability.” The recent victory in Aleppo is so important for the stability in the area and Iran has remained a close ally of Syria and supports its legitimate government in the face of foreign-backed militancy.
