With wars raging in Syria, Iraq and other countries, the UN estimates that 50 million people are currently displaced around the world.

　　This is the highest number since World War II.

　　Speaking at an international meeting in Jordan, Antonio Guterres says the UNHCR has already been forced to cut spending in non-refugee areas by 7 percent to meet the demand.

　　"So it's clear we need a universal humanitarian multilateral system that should be able to respond to these dramatic needs. The point is that today's humanitarian system is no longer able, as it is today, to respond to these dramatic situations."

　　The UN estimates there are close to 4 million Syrian refugees currently living in Jordan, Lebanon, Turkey, Egypt and Iraq.

　　This current round of discussions in Jordan is one of a series of meetings being held in the run-up to a World Humanitarian Summit set to take place in Istanbul in May, 2016.
