Eliot Engel: “I believe that a nuclear agreement should not whitewash the fact that Iran remains a destabilizing actor in the region…”

This legislation, passed into law last December, mandates the most sweeping sanctions on Assad's enablers.

Why have there been no designations by us of Russian companies and individuals who are so clearly and shamelessly giving Assad a lifeline?

I particularly want to thank Chairman Engel for his leadership, as well as the whole committee, for making the Caesar Act a reality.

We will continue to call out and hold accountable those who undermine the Dayton Peace Agreement or threaten the country's sovereignty, territorial integrity, and multi-ethnic character.
