Eliot Engel: “We need to push for a political solution that ends the Assad regime's campaign of carnage, removes Assad from power, and…”

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.

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.
