Tillerson Says Russia 'Bears Responsibility' for Syria Chemical Attacks
U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson on Tuesday said Russia bore responsibility for recent chemical attacks by the Syrian government, which it backs in the country's civil war.
"The recent attacks in East Ghouta raise serious concerns that Bashar al-Assad's Syrian regime may be continuing its use of chemical weapons against its own people," Tillerson told reporters in Paris.
"Russia ultimately bears responsibility for the victims in East Ghouta."
