US-Russia deal to bring justice for Syria CW attacks, says Kerry

Update: 2015-08-07 00:08 GMT
US Secretary of State John Kerry says he hopes an agreement reached with Russia to investigate chemical weapons attacks in Syria will hold the perpetrators accountable. Speaking on Thursday in Malaysia, Kerry said he and Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov had agreed Wednesday to language of a new UN Security Council resolution that would create an investigative mechanism to determine who is responsible for chemical attacks. The current process does not allow investigators to make a finding of accountability.
