Vienna, Shawwal 18, 1433, Sep 5, 2012, SPA - German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle on Wednesday criticized Russia and China for blocking stronger measures against Syria in the United Nations Security Council. Germany holds the rotating presidency of the Security Council this month. "The responsibility lies clearly with those countries that still can't bring themselves to end their protection of (Bashar) Al-Assad's regime," Westerwelle said in Vienna, according to a report of dpa. --SPA 13:55 LOCAL TIME 10:55 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/1027265
