English term or phrase: Blairs chances have 'suffered a setback'
The article is discussing his Blair's chances of becoming the President of Europe, and how there are some countries opposing his candidacy.
The dictionary gives a few suggestions - I thought يواجه عقبة but Arabic not being my native tongue, the idiomatic rendering is proving difficult.
