Russia substantially amended those elements and presented them as a Russian-drafted resolution on Tuesday. Russia requested the draft to be voted on alongside two competing draft resolutions on a broader investigative mechanism for chemical weapons use in Syria.
The two competing drafts, prepared by the United States and Russia respectively, failed to be adopted by the council.
The U.S. draft received 13 votes in favor, but Russia blocked it, using its veto power. Bolivia also voted against the U.S. text.
The Russian-drafted resolution got only six votes in favor, short of the nine voted needed. Besides, veto-wielding Britain, France and the United States all voted against it.
