This definition has undesirable consequences, so US policymakers are now looking for a replacement.
The US Congress is working on an alternative to recognizing Russia as a “country-sponsor of terrorism.” This is what US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken said in an interview with CNN.
“We are always considering what steps we can take to increase the pressure. We are currently working with Congress on policies that will help us with some of the contentious issues related to the use of the definition of a “country sponsor of terrorism “, which will have undesirable consequences, – said Blinken, adding that work is being carried out on ways to achieve this goal.
Earlier, the United States clarified its position on recognizing the Russian Federation as a terrorist state: such a step is considered “counterproductive.”
Recall that the European Parliament recognized Russia as a state sponsor of terrorism. The decision was adopted with 494 votes in favor, 58 votes against and 44 abstentions.
