Some EU countries reluctant to brand Russia a 'terrorist regime', says dep FM

Large EU countries like Germany and France are unwilling to classify Russia as a "terrorist regime", a Polish deputy foreign minister has said. On Wednesday the Senate, Poland's upper house of parliament, unanimously adopted a resolution declaring the Russian Federation a terrorist regime, and calling on the international community to support the International Criminal Court in investigating people responsible for war crimes in Ukraine. But Piotr Wawrzyk told PAP on Thursday that he doubted the resolution would have a significant impact on Polish attempts to get other countries to follow suit.
