Ben Cardin: “We now need to see how we can deal with a more holistic approach on drugs coming into America.”

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

There is no reason why somebody should be sanctioned in America and not in Europe or not in the U.K.

You have found the Achilles hill of the Putin regime. They rape, torture and kill with impunity and keep their ill-gotten gains in the West.

We imposed sanctions on the individual.
