Eliot Engel: “Democracy is on the ropes worldwide. Supporting it is a moral and strategic good.”

Self-government is not some sort of temporary arrangement or gift from the military, it's a right that's owed to the people of Burma.

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

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

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