Also, Russia categorically denied any ungrounded attempts to raise the issue of using sanctions against Syria, Russia’s Permanent Representative at the United Nations Vitaly Churkin said.
"We are categorically against any ungrounded attempts to raise the issue of using sanction measures under Chapter VII of the United Nations Charter," he said on Friday after the United Nations Security Council passed a resolution on the inadmissibility of warfare use of poisonous substances in the Syrian conflict.
The document that was passed by the majority of votes provides for possible imposing of measures under Chapter VII of the United Nations Charter in case episodes of the use of chemical weapons in Syria are confirmed.
He said that it was the competence of ruling bodies of the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) to establish and verify episodes of possible violations of the Chemical Weapons Convention.
According to the Russian diplomat, Russia voted in favor of the above resolution proceeding from its "principled position on the inadmissibility of the use of chemical weapons wheresoever".
Syria has been grappling with a deadly crisis since March 2011. The violence fuelled by Takfiri groups has so far claimed the lives of over 210,000 people, according to reports. New figures show that over 76,000 people, including thousands of children, lost their lives in Syria last year.
Over 3.8 million Syrians have left their country since the beginning of the crisis. According to reports, more than seven million Syrians have become internally displaced.
The Takfiri terrorist group, with members from several western countries, controls swathes of land in Syria and Iraq, and has been carrying out horrific acts of violence such as public decapitations and crucifixions against all communities such as Shiites, Sunnis, Kurds and Christians.
