“As for declaring Russia a state sponsor of terrorism, we are considering this issue, it requires careful analysis in accordance with American laws. In the meantime, we hold Russia to account for its actions and we continue to do so.”
The Ambassador noted that, together with partners and allies from around the world, the United States had imposed an unprecedented volume and depth of sanctions and would continue to do so in the future. She emphasized that Russia had been cut off from financing by international financial institutions, and prevented from using frozen funds of the central bank to repay its debt.
“We implement all available means that would be used for a country that is such a sponsor. However, we also consider a declaration seriously. And we will continue to hold Russia to account in accordance with our legislation,” the American diplomat emphasized.
