Some progress has been made in the discussion of a draft resolution on Syria, Russian Ambassador Vitaly Churkin said after a closed session at the UN on Wednesday.
“We have a much better understanding of what we need to do to reach a consensus,” Churkin stated.
Russia still opposes any phrasing in the draft that could bring military intervention or regime change in Syria.
Before the session, US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton told Security Council members that they must decide whether to support the Syrian people, or a “brutal, dictatorial regime.”
The UNSC is not expected to vote on a resolution until next week.
