Russia Sanctions 13 Americans, Including Joe And Hunter Biden, Hillary Clinton
Russia announced sanctions Tuesday against Americans including President Joe
Biden, his son Hunter Biden and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
In a statement, Russia’s Foreign Ministry said the restrictions which came amid waves of sanctions by the US and its allies that have crippled Russia’s economy over the invasion of Ukraine were “the consequence” of what it called the White House’s “extremely Russophobic policy.”
The move prevents those named from entering Russia and freeze any assets they have there, according to the BBC. Moscow called the restrictions “personal sanctions” and a “stop list” based on “the principle of reciprocity.”
The foreign ministry also warned that additional sanctions would follow against other, unspecified “Russophobic” US officials, military officers, lawmakers, business owners and media figures.
The measures — which target 13 Americans, including Secretary of State Antony Blinken, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and Gen. Mark Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff — won’t prevent them from engaging in high-level communications with Russia, the news agency said.
