European Commission Vice President Josep Borrell said Saturday the mission of the UN peacekeeping mission in Lebanon UNIFIL "needs to be reviewed" and possibly strengthened.
"They cannot act by themselves, it is certainly a limited role. It could be considered to expand the role but this requires a United Nations Security Council decision," said Borrell, speaking on the sidelines of a G7 defence summit.
