The promised action was to urge State and Treasury to reverse the removal of sanctions, not necessarily to secure the reversal. Keating, while serving in federal office, joined Meeks in a November 12, 2025 letter to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and State Secretary Marco Rubio explicitly urging the departments to reverse course on delisting Milorad Dodik, his family members, and affiliates from the SDN List. That directly fulfills the commitment in the same term.
