Eliot Engel: “I think one of the biggest problems with this deal is that the other countries in the region will pursue nuclear…”

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.

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

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