UNSC ON HARIRI REPORT
The United Nations Security Council met today to discuss the now-famous report on the assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri. Syria's ambassador to the UN compared the accusations of a Syrian hand in the assassination to charges of involvement by the U.S. authorities in the September 11th terrorist attacks. The United States and France are expected to author a joint resolution calling on Syria to cooperate with further investigations. The interim report - released last week - implicates a number of high-ranking Lebanese and Syrian officials in Hariri's assassination. A final version of the report is due out on December 15th.
