The Russian Foreign Ministry published a list of 963 names of US figures banned from entering Russia, including President Joe Biden, head of the Meta group that owns Facebook Mark Zuckerberg and actor Morgan Freeman, in response to similar sanctions imposed by Washington since the start of the Russian military campaign in Ukraine.
The Russian Foreign Ministry stressed that the Russian counter-sanctions are necessary and aim to compel the US authority, which is trying to impose on the rest of the world a new colonial world order, to change its position and recognize new geopolitical realities.
