Eliot Engel: “I think diplomacy is a key complement to a sanctions package.”

This coup is a blatant violation of the rights of the Burmese people.

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

I introduced the Caesar Syria Civilian Protection Act several years ago as a response to what we saw in this room.

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