I think this administration has behaved incredibly well with respect to encouraging and get us closer to a solution, certainly than the last administration did.

If we can continue to see progress I would love to see us be able to rescind that.

We have a real responsibility to try and get that right.

I am very worried about that.

I will work with members from both sides of the aisle to achieve America's foreign objectives.

To work with the handful of willing partners we have in Syria to create the conditions to first take down the level of violence so that the Syrian people have a chance.

Know that the plight of Mr. Holt is on our minds and we are doing the things we can with the tools we can to encourage the Maduro regime to at least, in this one instance, do something right and send this fellow back.

We know Russia poses a challenge to our strategic interests and the security of our allies.

The Trump Administration strongly supports the Taylor Force Act.

Senator, yes, I believe that he does.

We have all committed to that.

As I have said before, when we come across a country that is engaged in human rights violations, things that are inconsistent with our values, we should call them out.

I will also push for the Chinese government to free those arbitrarily detained, including the families of RFA journalists.

If confirmed, I will support the Administration's efforts to support the maternal health and family planning needs of women around the world.

I will raise my concerns about the Radio Free Asia cases and the deteriorating situation in Xinjiang directly with the Chinese government.

I don't know that I was--I don't know in the context of that statement that I was thinking about.

To the extent the capacity, the nuclear capability, the technology, and the capacities that North Korea has continue to exist, they present an enormous proliferation threat throughout the world.

I share your concern about Hizballah's destabilizing role in Lebanon and in the region.

You have my full commitment that we will work on these issues together.
