EU- Mogherini says political solution in Syria will defeat ISIL


(MENAFN- Kuwait News Agency (KUNA)) EU Foreign Ministers in their meeting Monday dedicated most of their work on a political solution to the Syria conflict, EU High Representative Federica Mogherini told a press conference this evening.
"This would be also the best possible way providing the conditions to defeat Da'esh. Putting an end to the war in Syria would create the conditions to defeat Da'esh on the ground," she said, referring to ISIL with its Arabic acronym.
EU special representative for Syria Staffan de Mistura joined the EU ministers on the discussions on Syria.
The ministers also discussed the migration crisis, she said and stressed that "there must be no mix, no confusion between the issue of migration and refugees and the terrorist threats.
"Any mix, any confusion, any amalgam, would be extremely dangerous, extremely counterproductive for our own public opinions and for our own continent," she warned.
Mogherini updated the meeting on the Middle East Peace Process.
"I updated the Ministers on the steps forward. I also updated them on the guidelines that were adopted on the indication of origin last week. We have decided to come back to this issue in December," she added.
Last week the EU adopted new rules on the issue of labeling of illegal Israeli settlement products that are sold as "made in Israel" in Europe.
