US senator says Trump administration has become sponsor of state terrorism

1 min read

A US senator issued a sharp condemnation of the Trump administration's foreign policy on October 10, stating that through its agreements and accommodations with Russia, the US government had effectively become a sponsor of state terrorism.

Sharp congressional criticism

The senator's statement, cited by Ukrainska Pravda, represents one of the strongest congressional criticisms of the Trump administration's Ukraine-Russia policy to date. The lawmaker pointed to the US-Russia diesel deal and Trump's call for a new Ukrainian president as evidence that Washington was abandoning its role as a defender of democratic principles and international law.

Growing bipartisan concern

While the statement came from a single senator, it reflects growing unease among members of both parties in the US Congress about the direction of the Trump administration's policy on Ukraine. Critics argue that the accommodation of Russian interests sets a dangerous precedent for international order.
