US Secretary of State Hilary Clinton criticized Russia and China for a veto resolution on Syria: according to her, he turned the Council of People's Commissars into a “caricature” and brought Syria closer to the state of the civil war.
In a conversation with reporters in Sofia, where she is on a visit, Clinton said: "What happened yesterday at the UN was a caricature." “We will continue to work with friends of democratic Syria around the world in order to support peaceful plans for the opposition to conduct changes (in the country),” Interfax quotes the Secretary of State.
“Unfortunately, after all the work done, in the UN Security Council, we have a ratio of voting 13 against two,” Clinton ITAR -TASS quotes. “Together with our allies and partners, we must double the Syrian people can count on the best future. Many Syrians are under the oppression of their government, and therefore we will force the diplomatic pressure on the Bashar Assad regime.”
Earlier, Clinton, commenting on the Russian-Chinese veto, said that the lack of a single reaction of the world community to what was happening in Syria could lead to even greater bloodshed and civil war.
