"I call on the members of the Security Council to unite and exercise that responsibility", Guterres said.
Former U.S. ambassador to NATO Nicholas Burns, who is now a professor of diplomacy at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government, joined WBUR's Weekend Edition.
Recalling the consistent North Atlantic Treaty Organisation condemnation of Syria's continued use of chemical weapons, the alliance chief said the alleged use of such weapons had been a clear breach of global norms and agreements.

US President Donald Trump on Friday launched precision air strikes on Syria in a combined operation with France and Britain. This legally questionable action risks escalating further, as US Defence Secretary James Mattis has admitted, an already devastating conflict and therefore makes real accountability for war crimes and use of chemical weapons less, not more likely'.
On April 7, the volunteer organizations reported that the chemical attack at Douma, the East Ghouta took place.
"Syria also serves as a base to carry out such action, namely on behalf of Iran, endangering its territory, its forces and its leadership", the official added. Israel did not deny or confirm any responsibility.
