Video: Foreign ministers express disappointment over U.N. resolution

Foreign ministers express disappointment over U.N. resolution

clip from video description: Russia’s ambassador to the United Nations, however, called the U.N. resolution improper and biased while his Chinese counterpart, Li Baodong said the divided votes would not help resolve the issue.

The draft resolution which was pushed by Morocco called for an end to the violence in Syria which has persisted for 11 months. It did not include any sanctions or military intervention.

This is the second veto of a U.N. resolution on Syria whose violence has claimed the lives of over 5,000 people. [see video at link]
