Abstract
After a year and a half of violence and tens of thousands of deaths in Syria, the UN Security Council
convened in July 2012 to consider exerting additional international pressure on President Bashar al-Assad. And for the third time in nine months, Russia and China vetoed any moves toward multilateral
intervention. Less than two weeks later, Kofi Annan resigned as the joint UN-Arab League special envoy for Syria, lamenting, “I can’t want peace more than the protagonists, more than the Security Council
or the international community for that matter.”
