Speaker of the US House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi is demanding that Secretary of State Anthony Blinken declare Russia a state sponsor of terrorism. Otherwise, Congress will.
This is reported by Politico.
It is noted that Nancy Pelosi has taken an extremely tough stance on the issue of declaring Russia a state sponsor of terrorism. She issued an ultimatum to Secretary of State Anthony Blinken - either the decision is made by his department, or Congress will do it.
According to the publication, she said this during a telephone conversation with Blinken. At the same time, both the State Department and Congress did not give official comments on this matter.
A Democratic congressional aide said there was no legal reason to prevent Congress from passing legislation.
“There is no legal reason why Congress could not pass a law that effectively defines Russia as a state that supports terrorism,” he said.
Congressional passage of legislation is a more difficult path than a Secretary of State’s decision, he said, but it would give the administration political cover.
By the way, on the night of July 21, the Russians fired seven rockets at Nikolaev, and the enemy fired at Kharkov, as a result of which one person died and 17 were injured.
The CIA also assessed Putin’s chances of winning the war of attrition.
It should be noted that this morning, July 21, the Russian military from Gradov attacked the Nikopol district.
Recall that the ISW reported how the new offensive of the infidels in the Donbass could end.
Earlier, the Ukrainian military repelled the assault actions of the Russians in the area of Bogorodichny, Grigorovka, Disputed and Novoselivka II. Fighting continues near Berestovaya and Uglegorsk thermal power plants.
As you know, Ukrainian soldiers fired about a thousand cities and villages, and more than 2,500 settlements remained to be conquered from the Russian Federation.
