Security Council member Brazil is concerned that United Nations intervention in Syria might aggravate tensions in the Middle East and lead to a repetition of the type of stalemated conflict raging in Libya, Foreign Minister Antonio Patriota said today.
Brazil, Latin America’s biggest economy, gave its first response to a draft resolution introduced yesterday in the 15-member UN Security Council that would condemn repression of anti-government protesters and demand an end to the violence in Syria.
