1. Short title This Act may be cited as the Keeping Russian Entrapments Minimal and Limiting Intelligence Networks Act or the KREMLIN Act . 2. Findings Congress finds the following: (1) Russia continues to engage in information warfare and political interference in the West, including by undermining democratic systems and exploiting economic and ethnic tensions within member countries of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. (2) Such activities constitute a threat to the United States and to its allies. (3) The intelligence community of the United States, while aware of such activities, does not have a complete understanding of the political intentions underlying these activities, which is critical to effectively calibrate a United States response to Russian aggression and prevent escalation. 3. Sense of Congress It is the sense of Congress that— (1) the Countering America’s Adversaries Through Sanctions Act ( Public Law 115–44 ) was an appropriate response to Russia’s— (A) meddling in the 2016 United States presidential election; (B) continued aggression in the Ukraine and the Crimea region; and (C) support for the Assad regime in Syria; (2) the United States should sustain its newly deployed enhanced forward presence in Poland, Lithuania, and Estonia and urge Canada, the United Kingdom, and Germany to quickly deploy and sustain parallel commitments in those countries; (3) the United States has defensive intentions in pursuing such sanctions and such enhanced military posture in Europe, and does not seek to threaten Russian territory
