UN Council adopts resolution on dismantling Syrian chemical arsenal
The UN Security Council yesterday voted unanimously to adopt a resolution aimed at ridding war-torn Syria of chemical weapons.
The vote came after the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, an international chemical watchdog, agreed on a plan to destroy Syria's stockpile by mid-2014.
"The Security Council decides that the Syrian Arab Republic shall not use, develop, produce, otherwise acquire, stockpile or retain chemical weapons, or transfer, directly or indirectly, chemical weapons to other States or non-State actors," the resolution said.
The measure was finalized on Thursday night by the five permanent members of the 15-member UN body -- Britain, China, France, Russia and the United States.
A UN fact-finding group has confirmed the use of chemical weapons on August 21 outside the Syrian capital of Damascus. But the inspectors did not say who used them.
