Resistance Seen in EU to Blacklisting Hizbullah
(Wall Street Journal) Laurence Norman - The British-led push to add Hizbullah's military wing to the EU's list of terrorist organizations ran into resistance from about six countries Tuesday in the first formal talks on the issue in Brussels. France, Germany and the Netherlands quickly came out in support of the British push. Countries that appeared reluctant included Finland, Austria and Ireland. "My guess is it's going to take some time" to reach a decision, said one EU diplomat. All 27 EU member states must agree for Hizbullah to be added to the list.
