Testimony of Michel Gabaudan
President of Refugees International

President of Refugees International
September 30, 2010
The United States has a special responsibility to ensure basic
protection and adequate assistance for the approximately 500,000 Iraqi
refugees living in the region and the more than 1.5 million Iraqis
displaced inside of their country.
The United States has a treasured tradition of providing sanctuary and
protection to people fleeing war, insecurity and persecution, and in the
midst of so many security challenges around the world – from Burma,
Afghanistan and Pakistan, to Iraq, Somalia, Sudan and Colombia. The
United States is also more actively involved in reducing statelessness
than ever before. I cannot think of a better time to discuss long
overdue reforms to U.S. laws governing asylum, refugee resettlement, and
persons who do not presently enjoy their fundamental right to a
nationality.
