Eliot Engel: “Taiwan is a flourishing, multi-party democracy of over 20 million people with a vibrant free market economy.”

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.

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

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