Mogherini: some tempted to freeze conflict in Syria

High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Federica Mogherini said that there are attempts to freeze the conflict in Syria.

"Some are tempted to turn the war in Syria into a frozen conflict," she said at the conference in Brussels.

According to Mogherini, it would be the perfect recipe for more ethnic tensions, more human rights violations, new spaces opening up for radicalisation and re-grouping of terrorist organisations, and ultimately more regional instability.
