EU plans more sanctions on Syria, including oil

None

The European Union is planning to slap sweeping new economic sanctions against Syria, including an embargo on oil imports, a senior official said Friday.

 

A foreign policy committee has proposed adding 15 more Syrian officials and five companies to the existing sanctions list, the official said on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the matter. (AP)
