Graham and Blumenthal Renew Push to Designate Russia as State Sponsor of Terrorism Following Putin-Kim Meeting
Jun 20, 2024, 05:29 PM
Senators Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) have introduced new legislation to designate Russia as a state sponsor of terrorism under U.S. law. The announcement was made during a press conference held at the Senate Radio-TV Gallery at 12:30 PM. The move is part of a renewed push following a meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. The designation would place Russia in a group of countries that includes North Korea and Iran. The Secretary of State holds the authority to make such designations, and the senators are urging the Biden administration to take this step. The senators are bolstered by former President Trump having designated North Korea as a state sponsor of terrorism in 2017. The press conference was broadcast live on C-SPAN.
