Austria minister: EU fails to reach deal on Syria

BRUSSELS (AP) ? The Austrian foreign minister says the European Union's top diplomats have failed to reach a common position over Syria's civil war, and EU sanctions against Bashar Assad's regime are likely to expire on June 1.

Austrian Foreign Minister Michael Spindelegger told reporters Monday that he was concerned about the failure to reach a common position and said that after the sanctions collapse "everybody is entitled to deliver weapons to the Assad regime or to the opposition."

Spindelegger said he was holding out hope for a last-minute reversal that could salvage a deal in talks set to continue later Monday.
