11/13/19 - Rep. Hoyer tweeted "President Trump must stop condoning Turkey’s incursion into Syria. He should make it clear that Turkey has to withdraw and cease its attacks against our Kurdish allies. He should also urge President Erodgan to ease the autocratic repression he has imposed within Turkey." View the tweet here.

10/29/19 - Rep. Hoyer tweeted "I told press the House will vote today on a Turkey sanctions bill. Turkey’s actions in Northern Syria are of great concern to the US & our NATO allies. The House will also vote to recognize the Armenian genocide, an important action to help preclude genocide from occurring again." View the tweet here.

10/29/19 - Rep. Hoyer posted the following to Facebook: "Today, the House will pass a resolution recognizing the horrific and systematic efforts to commit genocide against the Armenian people a century ago. As we vote on this resolution, let us also keep our attention focused on populations today that are being subjected to ethnic cleansing and forced relocation. The House is sending a clear message to them: we see you; we will not abandon you." View the Facebook post here.

10/23/19 - Rep. Hoyer posted the following to Facebook: "Just as I opposed the President’s disastrous decision to withdraw troops from Northern Syria, I strongly disagree with the President’s ill-advised announcement that he is lifting sanctions on Turkey. Once again, he is abandoning our allies while giving our adversaries everything they want. This is a complete win for Turkey, as well as Russia, the Assad regime, and Iran. It is shameful that he is forsaking our allies and creating ethnic displacement while at the same time allowing the resurgence of ISIS. The House must and will act next week when we bring a bipartisan sanctions bill to the House Floor to deter Turkey’s assault on our Kurdish allies." View the Facebook post here.

10/22/19 - Rep. Hoyer posted the following to Facebook: "As a result of President Trump’s reckless and impulsive decision to withdraw from Syria and abandon our allies, Russia has now solidified its hold over that country and expanded its power and influence in the Middle East. President Trump has handed control over critical parts of Syria to President Putin on a silver platter, also rewarding Turkey for its assault on our Kurdish allies and allowing for the displacement of ethnic Kurds from their homes. How shameful, yet how predictable it is for this President who has befriended autocrats and who favors reckless action over formulating thoughtful strategies that protect America’s interests.

10/11/19 - Rep. Hoyer posted the following to Facebook: "It is beyond belief that the Trump Administration would side with Russia in thwarting a U.N. Security Council statement explicitly condemning Turkey’s invasion of Syria. This is national security malpractice at its worst, and the lives lost will be on the President’s watch. The House ought to act to address this crisis, and I hope all Members – Democrats and Republicans alike who are forcefully condemning the actions of this President, which put our security and global credibility in jeopardy – can work together in the days ahead to respond."
