Guardian Video: Syrian leader condemned by UN resolution vote

The United Nations general assembly passed a resolution approving an Arab League plan urging Bashar al-Assad to step down as Syrian president. The non-binding resolution received just 12 votes against, including those of Russia and China, who vetoed a similar recent resolution in the security council. Diplomats hope the vote will persuade Assad to end human rights violations
