BEIJING, April 24 (Xinhuanet) -- US President Barack Obama has announced new sanctions against Iran and Syria. He made the announcement after visiting the US Holocaust Memorial Museum.
Obama said the US will work together with its allies and partners to keep increasing the pressure on Syria’s President Bashar Assad and his government. He vowed to continue to stand side by side with the Syrian opposition.
Obama said, "We’ll keep increasing sanctions to cut off the Bashar Assad's regime from the money it needs to survive. We’ll sustain a legal effort to document atrocities so killers face justice, and a humanitarian effort to get relief and medicine to the Syrian people. And we’ll keep working with the "Friends of Syria" to increase support for the Syrian opposition as it grows stronger. Indeed, today we’re taking another step. I’ve signed an executive order that authorizes new sanctions against the Syrian government and Iran and those that abet them for using technologies to monitor and track and target citizens for violence."
