EU chief, Turkey discuss foreign fighters in Syria

The European Union's new foreign affairs chief on Monday called for "good coordination and strategy" with Turkey to stem the flow of foreign fighters into Syria and Iraq.

 

Federica Mogherini is paying her first visit to Turkey, a candidate for EU membership, at a time when the country is under pressure to get more engaged in the international coalition fighting the Islamic State extremist group and to prevent foreign jihadis from crossing its borders to join the group.
