Die EU will nach Recherchen der Deutschen Presse-Agentur mit Finanzhilfen im Umfang von rund einer Milliarde Euro den Zustrom von bislang im Libanon lebenden Flüchtlingen aus Syrien stoppen. Mit dem EU-Geld soll nach Angaben von EU-Beamten das Gesundheits-, Bildungs- und Sozialwesen im Libanon gestärkt werden.

Zudem sind Mittel für die Sicherheitsbehörden und die Streitkräfte des Landes sowie für den Kampf gegen Schleuserbanden und für Wirtschafts- und Finanzreformen vorgesehen. Die legale Migration wird den Plänen zufolge erleichtert werden.

Das Unterstützungspaket soll nach Angaben der Beamten an diesem Donnerstag bei einer Libanon-Reise von Kommissionspräsidentin Ursula von der Leyen und Zyperns Präsident Nikos Christodoulidis angekündigt werden.

Vor allem die zyprische Regierung hatte die wachsende Zahl syrischer Flüchtlinge aus dem Libanon zuletzt als nicht mehr tragbar kritisiert und ein Handeln der EU gefordert.
