Britain to accept more Syrian refugees: PM David Cameron

 

Cameron, who is currently in Lisbon for talks with his Portuguese counterpart Pedro Passos Coelho, said more details would be set out next week following talks with organisations working in the region.

He may not be able to put a specific number on how many refugees the government is willing to take, but it is expected the government will make a statement on Monday when parliament returns after the summer recess, as media reported.

People selected to come to Britain are likely to be drawn from the UN Refugee Agency camps on the border of Syria and not from the French port town of Calais or other locations near the country.

Cameron reiterated that, since there are reportedly two million Syrian refugees in the Middle East, the ultimate answer does not lie in taking refugees but in finding a political solution within Syria. http://post.jagran.com/britain-to-accept-more-syrian-refugees-pm-david-cameron-1441366747

Konta beats heat in US Open record match

 

Instead, the 24-year-old qualifier battled through oppressive heat and humidity for three hours and 23 minutes in a historic 7-6 (7/4), 6-7 (4/7), 6-2 triumph over Wimbledon runner-up Garbine Muguruza, the ninth seed from Spain.

"It's a horrible situation to be in," Konta said. "It was definitely hot out there. I'm already a sweater so I was really perspiring. I dealt with it the best I could. I was hydrating. I was nibbling on a banana."

"I'm very tired but it's a good tired because it shows that I left everything out there. I'm just happy I was able to come away with a win."

The marathon match lasted seven minutes longer than the old mark set in 2011 when Samantha Stosur defeated Nadia Petrova on her way to the title. "I noticed after the first set it was incredibly long, but then after I had a couple glances on the clock, I'm like, 'OK, we have been here for a while,'" Konta said. http://post.jagran.com/konta-beats-heat-in-us-open-record-match-1441359765
