The European Union's policy toward Syria, however, remains confused, with member states having managed to agree only to create a “regional trust fund" to address the crisis. Given the EU's strong interest in a more stable Syria, rooted in its geographical proximity, it is time for European leaders to take an unequivocal stance on Syria.
但是，欧盟对叙利亚政策仍是一团糟，成员国只是同意成立一个“地区信托基金”解决这场危机。稳定的叙利亚对欧盟具有重大意义，这谁由其地理位置决定的，因此欧洲领导人应该在叙利亚问题常采取绝不含糊的立场。
