Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley strongly condemned Russia and the
Syrian government Wednesday over the chemical weapons attack on civilians,
suggesting that the US is open to using military action to solve the country's
ongoing civil war.
"When
the UN consistently fails in its duty to act collectively, there are times in
the life of states that we are compelled to take our own action," Haley
said, adding that if the UN doesn't take action, "we may."
Haley, who
is also the UN Security Council president, was speaking as the council
considers a resolution condemning the Assad regime for the attack, which killed
dozens, including many children
.
"How
many more children have to die before Russia cares?" Haley said as she
displayed photos of the victims.
