WASHINGTON<\/a> \u2014 Two years into a\u00a0civil war\u00a0that shows no signs of ending, the\u00a0Obama\u00a0administration is considering resettling refugees who have fled Syria, part of an international effort that could bring thousands of Syrians to American cities and towns.<\/p>\n

A resettlement plan under discussion in Washington and other capitals is aimed at relieving pressure on Middle Eastern countries straining to support 1.6 million refugees, as well as assisting hard-hit Syrian families.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0State Department\u00a0is \u201cready to consider the idea,\u201d an official from the department said, if the administration receives a formal request from the\u00a0United Nations\u00a0Office of the High Commissioner for Refugees, which is the usual procedure.<\/p>\n

The United States usually accepts about half the refugees that the U.N. agency proposes for resettlement. California has historically taken the largest share, but Illinois, Florida, Pennsylvania, Maryland and Virginia are also popular destinations.<\/p>\n

U.N. refugee officials, diplomats and nongovernmental relief groups plan to discuss possible resettlement schemes at a high-level meeting this week in Geneva. Germany already has committed to taking 5,000 people.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was probably inevitable that in this crisis, with these overwhelming numbers, governments would start moving in this direction,\u201d said Lavinia Limon, chief executive officer of the U.S. Committee for Refugees and Immigrants, a Virginia-based advocacy and service group. \u201cBut there will be resistance.\u201d<\/p>\n
