UNSC adopt Syrian resolution
31 October 2005 22:
The United Nations Security Council has unanimously adopted a resolution demanding that Syria cooperate with a UN investigation into the assassination of the former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri or face possible future actions.
A UN inquiry into Mr Hariri's killing in a car bombing in February has implicated Syrian and Lebanese officials.
Today's resolution was adopted after the United States and France agreed to drop a call for sanctions from the text.
Instead, the resolution threatens unspecified 'measures' against Syria.
The US Secretary of State, Condoleeza Rice, said that Syria had offered no truthful explanations to the allegations that it was implicated in the killing of Mr Hariri.
