USA is working on recognition of Russia sponsor of terrorism

The White House, together with the US Congress, works on the form of the bill, which will allow Russia to recognize the state of terrorism, said USN television company Anthony Blinken.

The host of CNN Jake Tappper asked Blinken why the United States still did not declare Russia a sponsor of terrorism, and noted that such a step may have consequences, such as a delay in food export.

“We are constantly considering the various measures that we can take in order to strengthen the pressure [to Russia] if necessary. Now we are working with a congress on legislation that will help us to circumvent some problems associated with the use of state status – a sponsor of terrorism, which As you said, it has some unforeseen consequences, ”said Blinken.
