flag Congress pushes bipartisan bill to label Russia a terrorism sponsor over Ukraine war crimes, pending Trump’s support.

flag Congress is advancing a bipartisan bill to designate Russia as a state sponsor of terrorism, citing its war crimes in Ukraine, including forced child transfers and drone attacks, as well as incursions into Polish airspace. flag Backed by over 80 senators, the legislation would require the State Department to certify the safe return of abducted children before designation. flag While the move carries symbolic weight and could restrict U.S. ties with Russia, its passage depends on President Trump’s stance on new sanctions. flag Despite frustration with Putin’s intransigence, Trump has not imposed significant sanctions, leaving lawmakers awaiting a clear White House signal. flag Without presidential support, the bill remains stalled, highlighting the executive branch’s influence over congressional action.
