(AP) Edith M. Lederer - The U.S. circulated a draft UN resolution Thursday aimed at identifying the perpetrators of chemical weapons attacks in Syria so they can be brought to justice. U.S. Ambassador Samantha Power said, "Given the frequent allegations of chlorine attacks in Syria, and the absence of any international body to identify the perpetrators of chemical weapons attacks, it is critical that the UN Security Council find consensus and set up an independent investigative mechanism." The draft resolution asks UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon to submit to the council within 15 days recommendations to establish an investigative body to identify "entities, groups or governments who were perpetrators, organizers, sponsors or otherwise involved in use of chemical weapons" in Syria. While Russia and the U.S. have failed to agree on a way to end the Syrian conflict, they have agreed in the past on eliminating its chemical weapons stockpile. Russian and American diplomats discussed the text of the new resolution before it was circulated. 2015-07-10 00:00:00Full Article
