High Commissioner for Refugees spokesperson Melissa Flemming said today that since the beginning of April, around 3,000 refugees have crossed back into the Syrian province of Daraa from nearby Jordan. She said much of that area remains a battleground and the agency fears for the safety of those returning. Meanwhile, human rights groups are urging U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry to raise the treatment of dissidents and other rights concerns during his upcoming visit to China, which is expected to be dominated by talks on North Korea. Several groups including Amnesty International and Reporters without Borders said in a letter to Kerry this week that they fear human rights concerns have been sacrificed as Washington pursues economic opportunities in China and seeks Beijing's support on North Korea and other international concerns. ___________________联合国难民事务高级专员署发言人Melissa Flemming今天表示,4月份以来,约有3000名叙利亚难民从邻国约旦穿越边境进入叙利亚的Daraa省.但是她表示,该地区大部仍有战事发生,因此难民署对返乡难民的安全表示担忧. 与此同时,多个人权组织强烈要求美国国务卿John Kerry在出访中国期间提出对持不同政见人士对待问题及其他人权问题,预计朝鲜问题将会成为会谈的主旋律.包括国际特she组织和无guo界记者组织在内的多个人权组织在本周致Kerry的函中表示,他们担心美国政府会因为在经济发展、朝鲜局势以及其他国际问题上需要中国的支持而在人权问题上作出不应有的让步.
