WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The United States on Friday imposed sanctions on the neo-Nazi Nordic Resistance Movement and several of its leaders, designating them terrorists as Washington seeks to combat violent white supremacy, the U.S. State Department said.
The action designates Sweden-based NRM and three of its leaders as "specially designated global terrorists," the State Department said in a statement.
