BEIRUT, May 23 (Reuters) - Syrian Foreign Minister Walid al-Moualem said on Monday he expected more measures to be taken against the country, following E.U. and American sanctions, but that any measures would fall short of military action.

"I am not worried. Any political or economic measures won't reach a military solution. I assure that, but I expect more measures," Moualem told Syrian television.
