The U.S. House of Representatives passed a bill on Oct. 29 to impose sanctions against Turkey over its offensive in northeastern Syria. The legislation, which passed by a final tally of 403 to 16 votes, targets the Turkish defense establishment and parts of its financial sector and accelerates delayed sanctions under the Countering America's Adversaries Through Sanctions Act. The bill still requires approval from the U.S. Senate, which is currently considering its own legislation to impose sanctions on Ankara.
