Eliot Engel: “I couldn't applaud you more for your work in the area, and with the MD Care Act.”

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

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.

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.
