US Republican Senator Lindsey Graham will ask President Joe Biden's administration to recognise Russia as a state sponsor of terrorism.
"I will ask the Biden administration to recognise Russia as a state sponsor of terrorism under US law," Graham said.
He said that 87% of support for the Kremlin's master is so impressive it is beyond belief.
"President Putin after this election is illegitimate," the senator said.
"The introduction of a state sponsor of terrorism designation under US law will make secondary sanctions against China, India, etc. meaningful," he explained.
Earlier, the Biden administration has previously rejected demands to designate Russia as a state sponsor of terrorism, saying that this would tie the US’s hands in its engagement with Russia as a whole and block any diplomatic efforts to end Russia's war against Ukraine.
The European Union criticised the "presidential elections" in Russia, which were subject to numerous restrictions, saw no participation of real opposition candidates, and included votes cast in the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine.
Josep Borrell, EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, said that the "elections" took place under a "highly restricted environment", as the Russian authorities continued systemic repression of opposition figures, civil society organisations, and independent media outlets in the leadup to them. Specifically, many opponents ended up behind bars due to politically motivated court verdicts, and imprisoned opposition figure Alexei Navalny died in custody shortly before the elections.
Reportedly, under such conditions, many potential candidates did not even attempt to run for office, and Russians accordingly had no real choice.
On behalf of the EU, Borrell condemned the holding of elections in the occupied territories of Ukraine, yet another violation of international law by Russia.
