BEIRUT: Lebanon’s share of the $3.8 billion in aid pledged at an international donors’ conference for Syrian relief in Kuwait has yet to be determined, Social Affairs Minister Rashid Derbas said Wednesday.

“This issue will be studied by the UNHCR, relevant agencies, and U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon,” Derbas told The Daily Star. “If we get $800 million, that will be good,” he added.

Some 78 countries and 40 international aid organizations were present at the Kuwaiti conference.
