The U-N held an emergency debate on a chemical weapons attack on Syrian civilians in an opposition held town that left several dozen people dead.
The U-S ambassador to the U-N, Nikki Haley, warned that the Trump administration will act if the U-N Security Council doesn’t and urged it to adopt a resolution condemning the attack as well as imposing consequences for the action.
The Russians say the resolution gets ahead of any actions because it assumes the Syrian Government is to blame.
