Eliot Engel: “We must respond to the ongoing crisis in Syria and coordinate our efforts to protect cultural property before the next…”

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

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

I think that is scandalous and I think it, frankly, undermines whatever policy we are pursuing in Syria.

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.
