OSCE Parliamentary Assembly: “Russia Is a Sponsor of Terrorism”

On July 4, members of the OSCE PA adopted the declaration + recognised "Wagner" as a terrorist organisation 

According to the adopted document, a private military company Wagner is recognised as a terrorist organisation. Moreover, recent events have forced Putin to publicly admit that the government of Russia fully funded Prihozhin's military. Therefore, the RF, according to the adopted declaration, is recognised as a sponsor of terrorism.

The OSCE Parliamentary Assembly noted that terrorism is the greatest danger to the world. Therefore, member countries of the security institution will take measures against the terrorist organisation. In addition, the document confirms the need to strengthen measures to limit Russia to reduce its potential for warfare. Also, this document clearly defines the boundaries of a terrorist organisation and the country of the sponsor of terrorism and focuses on the inadmissibility of concluding international relations with the Russian Federation.

This is the first case of fixing in the document of an international organisation the definition of "state sponsor of terrorism."

This is the first case of fixing in the document of an international organization the definition of "state sponsor of terrorism." Recall that the armed forces of the Russian Federation and private military organizations of the aggressor country have been waging an armed war against the Ukrainian people for almost a year and a half, violating all norms and international rules.
