Eliot Engel: “It seems to me that the majority of the Serb population there doesn't support it and wouldn't support it.”

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

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

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

This legislation could go a long way toward putting Burma back on the path toward democracy.
