US House passes 3 anti-Russia bills

Washington, Mar 13 (UNI) The House of Representatives passed three anti-Russian bills requiring US intelligence to conduct assessments of the Russian government’s plans, examine corruption among Russian authorities and outlaw the US recognition of Crimea as a part of Russia, the texts of the documents said.
During the vote on Tuesday, US lawmakers passed the KREMLIN Act, which aims "to direct the Director of National Intelligence to submit intelligence assessments of the intentions of the political leadership of the Russian Federation, and for other purposes," according to the text of the bill.
The members of the House of Representatives also passed the Vladimir Putin Transparency Act, which guides the US intelligence community to expose "key networks" that the Russian leadership allegedly uses as a mechanism of strengthening political control and weakening democratic states.
