“Britain will submit a draft resolution to the UN Security Council condemning suspected chemical attacks in Syria and demanding ‘all necessary measures’ to protect civilians. The announcement came as the US and its allies pressed their case for likely military action against President Bashar al-Assad’s regime. Prime Minister David Cameron said Britain would present a resolution ‘condemning the chemical weapons attack by Assad’ to a meeting of the Security Council’s five permanent members in New York on Wednesday. The developments came after US Vice President Joe Biden said the chemical attacks could only have been perpetrated by Assad’s forces.”
