U.N. council fails to impose arms embargo on South Sudan

REUTERS - The United Nations Security Council failed on Friday to adopt a U.S.-drafted resolution to impose an arms embargo and further sanctions on South Sudan
despite warnings by U.N. officials of a possible genocide in the world's newest state.


There were seven votes in favor of the text and eight abstentions. A resolution needs nine votes in favor and no vetoes by the United States, France, Russia, Britain or China to be adopted.
