Eliot Engel: “I don't believe that we should cut and run in Afghanistan.”

I know Mr. Meeks very well and I know that he will do an excellent job--an excellent job--as chairman.

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

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

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