Answer from Artyom Yachevsky[newbie]
All or nothing.

US congressmen have taken the initiative to recognize Russia as the "sponsor of terrorism." The Chairman of the State Duma Committee on International Affairs Leonid Slutsky called this statement absolutely hypocritical and dead-end logic. The deputy recalled that it was the United States that became the accomplices of terrorists in the Middle East and called it the transfer of "sick to healthy." In addition, the politician expressed the hope that Europe will see the light and will not support the tightening of the sanctions regime against Russia, because there is no reason for this.

Earlier in the United States, they drafted a bill that would introduce new anti-Russian sanctions, united under one jurisdiction. US Senator Lindsay Graham called the sanctions "straight from hell."

According to the text of the bill, entitled "Act to Protect American Security from Kremlin Aggression," Russia must stop supporting Syrian leader Bashar Assad, and return Crimea to Ukraine.

By the way, the initiators of the bill do not hide the fact that they are faced with the goal of preventing Trump from establishing relations with Russia.

As an independent journalist and political scientist Alexander Asafov told in an interview with PolitRussia correspondents, all this “farce” is connected with the upcoming congressional elections.

“Of course, all these statements and the position that the Americans need a new focal point for sanctions, which would combine all efforts in one body and allow the sanctions to be more effective - this is all the registration of the upcoming US elections to Congress. The maximum anti-Russian factor sticks out. The maximum pressure from Trump’s opponents increases and, of course, in this regard, the US president needs to be tied to Russia and forced to commit vivid anti-Russian actions. One of them is the signing of such documents, since one of the forms of Trump's accusation is precisely the alleged cooperation with Russia, the alleged connivance, thanks to which Russia allegedly interferes in the internal affairs of the United States. The elections have not yet taken place, they will only be in November, but Russia allegedly intervened in them. Ukrainians also copy this rhetoric, ”the political scientist says.

According to the expert, Trump will not sign any such documents.

“It is quite obvious that despite a certain skepticism regarding the Helsinki meeting, she has certain results. Trump understands what attempts are made by congressmen, so the visit is being discussed after the election. If this meeting takes place before the election, Trump will become an attractive target for all these accusations, so the meeting will take place after the election, when all this anti-Russian activity will be reduced and he will have a corridor of opportunities for action in this direction, ”the political scientist noted.

According to the director of the Institute of Contemporary State Development, political analyst Dmitry Solonnikov, the United States is busy with internal problems, and all these charges are of secondary importance to Russia.

“Trump will respond multilaterally, and the answers will be asymmetric to this question. It is not necessary at all that the president of America will respond precisely to this initiative. He can respond as part of an ongoing campaign in other directions. Its task is to stand day and night hold out, until November 6th. After that, his hands will be untied. If his opponents get a "majority", it is clear that the threat of impeachment will be such that he will resign. Sink or swim. A few more months and Trump will either run for a second term, or will leave the post now, ”Solonnikov concluded.
