Russia Blocks French UN Security Council Ceasefire Resolution on Syria's Aleppo
New York - Arab Today
Russia vetoed a French-drafted United Nations Security Council Resolution on Saturday that called for an immediate end to airstrikes over Syria's Aleppo city, Sputnik reported.
This is the fifth time that Russia has vetoed a UN resolution on Syria during the five-year conflict with China joining Moscow in the previous four vetoes, but abstaining from voting on Saturday.
Meanwhile, another draft, put forward by Russia late Friday, failed to get the minimum nine "yes" votes required.
In Saturday's vote, the Russian draft resolution got four "yes" votes, nine "no" votes and two abstentions.
