Russia's draft resolution on Syria 'a separate document' – Lavrov



Russia’s foreign policy chief Sergei Lavrov has described the proposed draft resolution on Syria as a “separate document.” He stressed the paper submitted today to the UN Security Council did not seek to amend the West’s resolution but offered its own approach to the conflict.

“We have drafted our own resolution that we expect to be discussed in the UN Security Council. It is not mere amendments to the document submitted by Luxembourg, Australia and Jordan, but is essentially our take on the role that the Security Council can play in the settlement, if we mean it, and not just seek to provoke one or the other party,” Mr. Lavrov noted.
