For the first time in history, the US State Department has named a white supremacist organization as Specially Designated Global Terrorists
Nathan Sales, the department's coordinator for counterterrorism, announced Monday the designation of the Russian Imperial Movement and three of its leaders: Stanislav Anatolyevich Vorobyev, Denis Valliullovich Gariev, and Nikolay Nikolayevich Trushchalov. Sales described RIM as"a terrorist group that provides paramilitary-style training to neo-Nazis and white supremacists.
"Last year, President Donald Trump signed an executive order which gave the US government greater latitude to go after groups who train terrorists, not only groups that carry out terrorist attacks. Monday's designation will deny RIM members from accessing the US financial system, with the intention of making it more challenging for them to move money through the international system and fund their efforts.
