lpv:translated text	"Mr President, Baroness Ashton, we cannot put a figure on terror, but they have now counted over 10 000 deaths and over 40 000 displaced people in Syria. The United Nations’ annual report on children in armed conflict released this morning confirms our worst fears. The truth is clear. The crisis exit strategy is not effective, despite the concerted efforts of many countries and international organisations. The sanctions adopted by the European Union against Bashar al-Assad’s regime and the EUR 23 million released by the Commission are concrete actions. Yet it needs more than just actions of goodwill. We know that Russia has blocked the Security Council. This kind of blocking could, in time, be restricted if this body were to be reformed. For the time being, though, how do we put pressure on Moscow? Russian foreign policy focuses primarily on defending its commercial interests. This is evident in the volume of trade between Russia and Syria, which has risen from USD 220 million to USD 2 billion a year over the last five years. I therefore put it to you, Baroness Ashton, that it may be possible to break the diplomatic deadlock through other channels such as economic pressure or sanctions on Moscow. Is this option possible?"@en1
