U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres Thursday urged the Security Council to revive efforts to punish those responsible for chemical weapons use in Syria after Russia killed off a U.N. probe of the gas attacks.
Guterres said the use of chemical weapons in Syria's nearly seven-year war "seriously challenges the global taboo against these weapons of mass destruction."
"If the use of chemical weapons in Syria is once again determined, the international community needs to find an appropriate way to identify those responsible and hold them to account," he told a council meeting on non-proliferation.
