Russia is officially recognized as a country that supports terrorism

The decisions were supported by two -thirds of the deputies of the Latvian Parliament, who called on colleagues from other countries to follow their example. On August 11, the Latvian Seimas with voices of 67 parliamentarians supported the statement "On Russian Military Attacks on Civic Residents and the Public Space of Ukraine", Delfi reports. In total, there are 100 deputies in the Latvian Parliament.

The document emphasizes that Russian actions in Ukraine are a purposeful genocide of the Ukrainian people. Due to the invasion of Russians, 12 million Ukrainians left their homes, more than 5 million went abroad. Parliamentarians also drew attention to the support of the Russian Federation of separatism and violence against the inhabitants of Donetsk and Luhansk regions and Crimea.

At the same time, the Russian Federation supplies weapons to the Syrian dictator Bashar Assad and arranges a terrorist attack abroad. The statement said that the Latvia Seimas: we will remind, in May, the Diet of Lithuania unanimously voted for Russia's recognition of a terrorist state. The Lithuanian Parliament is convinced that the international community should create a special international criminal tribunal to investigate and evaluate Russia's aggression against Ukraine.

The court must have the authority to issue international warrants for the arrest of all participants in aggression, including the Russian leadership. The other day, it became known that US senators put pressure on Presidential Administration Joe Biden to recognize Russia as a sponsor of terrorism. The legislators will insist on the adoption of the corresponding law, even if the White House does not support this initiative.
