Russia will not support UN General Assembly Syria resolution

None

Russia said on Thursday it would not back a Saudi-drafted resolution on Syria at the UN General Assembly, saying it was unbalanced and would not help end the violence in the Middle East nation.

 

In a statement, the Russian Foreign Ministry said the draft placed "full responsibility for what is happening in the country... solely on the Syrian authorities" and made no demands on the opposition. (Reuters)
