Russia has said it would change it's mind about Syria IF the agreements were broken or schedules were not honored. Today, there is no reason that is or will be the case. The USA is endangering more lives with complete withdrawal by Syria if it continues to cry and carry on about a war option.
“I’m talking now theoretically and hypothetically, but if Russia becomes sure that [President] Assad, for example, is cheating, we might change our position. But so far we don’t have such evidence,” Sergey Ivanov, Kremlin Administration Chief said.
One resolution does not preclude another. Here we go with American politics and immorality, yet again. Kerry and Samantha Powers just can't keep their fingers off the trigger, can they?

The US is pushing Russia (click here) into approving a UN resolution that would allow for military intervention in Syria, in exchange for American support of Syria’s accession to OPCW, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has said.
“Our American partners are starting to blackmail us: ‘If Russia does not support a resolution under Chapter 7, then we will withdraw our support for Syria’s entry into the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW). This is a complete departure from what I agreed with Secretary of State John Kerry',” Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov told Channel 1's Sunday Time program.
Chapter 7 of the UN charter would allow for potential military intervention in Syria.
