"Many refugees will remain and apply for Lebanese citizenship in ten years. What will become of us Christians then? Lebanon is marked by a very delicate religious composition. Those Syrians who will remain in the country are mostly Sunnis. The country's religious balance will thus be destroyed. That is a problem for us. We show much solidarity. We want to act in solidarity. But we have obvious problems before our eyes. A question mark hangs over our future."
