Ben Cardin: “If the United States does not mention it, it will not get mentioned. We are the leader on this.”

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.

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

Why do we not widen this piece of legislation out so it includes all human rights abusers in Russia?

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