Eliot Engel: “By announcing that we will abandon our commitment to the Paris Agreement, this administration is setting the clock back…”

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 legislation, passed into law last December, mandates the most sweeping sanctions on Assad's enablers.

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.
