European Union foreign ministers will meet in Brussels at the end of the month to discuss the lifting of sanctions on Syria, EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas said on Sunday.

“We are working towards really being able to have decisions at that time whether we are able to do so,” Kallas told reporters on her way into the Riyadh talks on Syria.
