Representative John Shimkus is calling on President Trump to seek Congressional approval before taking more action in Syria. ‘’In 2013 I cautioned President Obama about military intervention in Syria,’’ said Shimkus. ‘’I also questioned why we are always the ones to respond, and why the international community may come late, but never early or on time, to these situations,’’ added Shimkus.
‘’Russia should have enforced the agreement struck in 2013 to remove all chemical weapons from Syria,’’ Shimkus says. ‘’After another attack on innocent civilians, it is clear this did not happen, and a war crime was committed.’’
