Gebran Bassil, Minister of Foreign Affairs and Emigrants, Lebanon

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?
