Ben Cardin: “I think this hearing has been extremely helpful.”

It was originally a piece of legislation targeting the people who killed Sergei Magnitsky.

If we are going to carry this as a value on the international stage, that the United States stands up for human rights and certain values and the rule of law, is it not important that we be willing to apply these sanctions to accomplish…

We need to consider how we deal with that.

Thank you very much for holding this hearing on the implementation of Global Magnitsky sanctions.
