It's been five years since the Syrian civil war began. David Miliband, president and CEO of the International Rescue Committee, discusses the state of the country and the refugee crisis.

Miliband said that both in the UK and US, there is a polarization about what the responsibility should be of relatively rich countries towards people who are fleeing persecution, and the polarization is between those who fear new arrivals and those who believe their nation is capable of facilitating refugees, while fulfilling obligations to local issues.
