Russia and China veto of Syria sanctions condemned as 'indefensible'
The UK, US and France rounded on Russia and China following the veto of a UN draft resolution on fresh Syrian sanctions, lambasting the move as "inexcusable" and accusing Moscow of buying time for Bashar al-Assad to "smash the opposition".
Both Russia and China have consistently resisted the security council's attempts to introduce sanctions on Damascus, meaning their veto was no surprise, but the strength of the response from those in favour gave some indication of the frustrations behind the scenes.
Britain's foreign secretary, William Hague, condemned the two countries vetoing the resolution as "inexcusable and indefensible", adding that Russia and China had "turned their back on the people of Syria in their darkest hour".
It was the third time Russia and China have used their vetoes over Syria. The resolution would have allowed sanctions to be imposed on the Assad regime under chapter 7 of the UN Charter.

Syria's turn
"The resolution would have allowed sanctions to be imposed on the Assad regime under Chapter 7 of the UN Charter."
Chapter 7 would also allow NATO to start bombing.
South Africa and Pakistan abstained.
India sided with the Axis of Evil (the Western / Israeli / Turkish / GCC / Islamic terrorist alliance).
So did Guatemala, which is no surprise, since Guatemala's government has been totally run by Jews for decades. Its UN ambassador Gert Rosenthal is a Jew.
So did Azerbaijan's government, which is strongly allied with Israel, and hates Iran.
Portugal's politicians sided with the Axis in order to stay on the Troika payroll.
Germany and Colombia sided with the Axis, which again is no surprise. Both nations instantly recognized the new government of Paraguay after the right-wing coup of 22 June 2012.
Morocco's right wing pro-US government sided with the Axis.
So did Togo, a pathetic little country with a puppet dictatorship.
Meanwhile the Axis continues to support the destruction of Syria. The goal is not necessarily regime change. The Axis is just as happy to reduce nations like Libya, Syria, and Iran to wastelands, since this eliminates unified central governments that could oppose Axis aggression. Wastelands make it cheap and easy to extract resources, such as Libya's oil, plus Libya's water from the Nubian Sandstone Aquifer.
The Axis uses Sunni terrorists to destroy entire nations. After the killers have destroyed their own nations, they become dependent on the Axis, and are easily managed. And since everyone hates them, the terrorists cannot form a unified central government that can oppose the Axis.
Libyan society has been set back a few centuries. Now it’s Syria’s turn.
