United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon arrived Thursday on a two-day visit to Lebanon that is expected to focus on Syrian refugees, the National News Agency reported.

Ban is scheduled to meet Lebanese Speaker Nabih Berri, Prime Minister Tammam Salam and a number of other officials, NNA said.

Lebanon has been without a president for almost two years amid a long-running political deadlock.

The local Annahar daily reported that Prime Minister Salam will reiterate during his meeting with Ban Lebanon's rejection to proposed naturalization of Syrian refugees in the country.

According to the United Nations Higher Commission for Refugees, Lebanon hosts more than 1.1 million Syrian refugees.
