Designating the Russian Federation as a State Sponsor of Terrorism Act

This bill would require the U.S. Secretary of State to certify within 60 days whether kidnapped Ukrainian children have been reunited with families and reintegration into Ukrainian society is underway. If not certified, it mandates designating Russia as a State Sponsor of Terrorism under existing U.S. laws, triggering sanctions and restrictions. The designation could be rescinded only after Russia certifies it has stopped supporting terrorism, returned all abducted children, and confirmed reintegration efforts are active. The bill directly affects U.S. foreign policy tools targeting Russia and focuses on accountability for actions related to Ukrainian children.
