Benjamin L. Cardin: “I strongly support greater transparency.”

We think the United States has to work with our partners in South America to make it clear that that was not an election where Maduro won.

Freedom House is pleased to support the Human Rights Defenders Protection Act, led by Chairman Cardin.

I introduced the Sergei Magnitsky Rule of Law Accountability Act as a way of saying that we will hold abusers accountable even if their own country does not.

I support that, but whether we will ever get to that point, my concern is it is going to be years down the road, and we are going to have another Moldova and another Georgia.
