US President Donald Trump has said that Syrian Christians will get priority for refugee status in America during an interview set to air on Sunday.
In a clip from the president’s interview with the Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN), Mr Trump says that Christians in Syria have been “horribly treated” before going on to add: “If you were a Christian in Syria, it was impossible, very, very tough to get into the United States.”
“If you were a Muslim you could come in, but if you were a Christian, it was almost impossible and the reason that was so unfair, everybody was persecuted in all fairness, but they were chopping off the heads of everybody but more so the Christians.”
