UNITED NATIONS (Sputnik) – The members of the United Nations Security Council decided not to support a Russian resolution on Friday that would have allowed cross-border humanitarian aid deliveries into Syria through two crossings for a period of six months.
The resolution received 5 votes in favoгr, while 4 members voted against, and 4 countries abstained.
A Security Council resolution requires nine votes and no veto from any of the five permanent members – China, France, Russia, the United Kingdom and the United States.
Earlier in the day, Russia and China rejected a resolution drafted by Belgium, Germany and Kuwait that called for authorising deliveries through three crossings for another year.
