This bill would designate the Russian Federation as a state sponsor of terrorism under U.S. law. The legislation would require the Secretary of State to add Russia to the official list of countries that the United States considers sponsors of international terrorism, placing it alongside nations like Iran, North Korea, and Syria. Once designated, Russia would face additional economic sanctions and restrictions on U.S. foreign assistance, defense exports, and other forms of cooperation. The bill includes a 60-day deadline for the Secretary of State to complete the certification process after the law takes effect. The Act would become effective one day after enactment, immediately triggering the formal designation process and associated sanctions regime.
