Moscow countermeasures; 227 Americans were banned from entering Russia

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia announced that in response to Washington’s sanctions against the officials and citizens of this country, 227 American citizens who participate in the development and implementation of military operations in Ukraine and justifying the Russophobic process of the United States government, are prohibited from entering the country. Russia was banned.

Washington had previously adopted sanctions against Russian citizens for supporting the Kremlin and special military operations, which met with Moscow’s reciprocation.

Among the Americans banned from entering the territory of Russia, the name of the adviser and spokesperson of the US State Department and the former US ambassador to Moscow can be seen.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia has announced in its statement that the sanctioned persons are directly involved in anti-Russian actions.

This statement says: We are talking about certain people in the executive branch, the business community, the media and academic circles of the United States who regularly attack Russia’s foreign and domestic policies with hostility, or who create false debates and slander They pay in Moscow.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia, which previously summoned the American ambassador in Moscow and reminded him of the undesiredness of the activities of a number of American humanitarian NGOs in the field of recruiting agents of influence, also announced: among the goals of the current expansion of the “stop list” Russia is reminding Washington of the simple truth that any aggressive attempt will not go unpunished and will be met with a decisive response.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia has uploaded on its website the file of the list of the suspension of American citizens and also the complete list of the citizens of the United States who are prohibited from entering the Russian Federation.

Previously, the US Treasury announced in early March 1402 that on the occasion of two years of Russia’s full-scale and illegal war against Ukraine and in response to the death of Alexei Navalny, an opposition politician and anti-corruption activist, approximately 500 individuals and institutions has sanctioned.
