WASHINGTON – Senator Bob Menendez (D-N.J.), Ranking Member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, and Senator Mitt Romney (R-Utah), yesterday introduced a Senate resolution to reaffirm the U.S.-Tunisia partnership, and to publicly support Tunisia’s ongoing transition into a vibrant and stable democracy.

WASHINGTON – Senator Bob Menendez (D-N.J.), Ranking Member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, and Senator Mitt Romney (R-Utah), yesterday introduced a Senate resolution to reaffirm the U.S.-Tunisia partnership, and to publicly support Tunisia’s ongoing transition into a vibrant and stable democracy. As Tunisia heads towards scheduled parliamentary and presidential elections later this year, the senators praised the Tunisian people and their political leaders for their commitment to democracy and rule of law.

“I am pleased to introduce this resolution reaffirming the strong partnership between Tunisia and the United States,” said Senator Menendez. “Across the Middle East and across the world, it is critical that the United States stand strong with partners in pursuit of democratic values including free and fair elections, respect for the rule of law, and universal freedoms and rights for all citizens. Particularly as instability mounts around its borders, it is critical to reaffirm our support and our shared values, interests, and pursuit of long term stability and security.”

“As the Chairman of the Foreign Relations Subcommittee with jurisdiction over matters concerning U.S. relations with Tunisia, I’m proud to join ranking member Menendez in introducing this resolution today,” said Senator Romney. “With this resolution, we reaffirm the partnership between Tunisia and the United States and support the Tunisian people in their pursuit of freedom and democracy.”

During the Arab Spring protests of 2011, Tunisians ousted dictator Zine El Abidine Ben Ali, and held the first competitive elections of the Arab Spring. Despite facing economic and security challenges, Tunisia has continued to reform its political system, adopting a new constitution in 2014 and holding new elections that same year.

The United States is offering a reward of up to $10 million for information that will help disrupt the financial operations of the global terrorist organization Hizballah.

The U.S. Department of State offers rewards to bring terrorists to justice and prevent acts of international terrorism against Americans as part of “Rewards for Justice.” Since the program began in 1984, the U.S. government has paid more than $150 million to more than 100 people who provided information that resulted in successful prosecutions or prevented acts of terrorism worldwide.

Specifically, the U.S. is seeking information that helps to identify Hizballah’s:

• Revenue sources, including major donors.
• Banks or institutions used to make transactions.
• Businesses or investments.
• Criminal schemes to launder money.
• Front companies that procure technology that could be used for weapons.

Hizballah is a Lebanon-based terrorist organization that receives weapons, training and money from Iran. Hizballah generates revenue from a combination of support from Iran, international businesses and investments, a network of donors and money laundering activities.

The three individuals are prime examples of key Hizballah financiers or facilitators the United States has designated as “Specially Designated Global Terrorists”:

Adham Tabaja is a Hizballah member who conducts business throughout the Middle East and West Africa on behalf of Hizballah.

Mohammad Ibrahim Bazzi is a key Hizballah financier who has provided millions of dollars to Hizballah generated from his business activities in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

Ali Youssef Charara is a key Hizballah financier who has received millions of dollars from Hizballah to invest in commercial projects that financially support the terrorist group.

More information about these reward offers is located on the Rewards for Justice website at www.rewardsforjustice.net or through e-mail (LH@rewardsforjustice.net).
