Russian Foreign Ministry expands sanctions against US representatives involved in military assistance to Ukraine

The Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has expanded anti-American sanctions by banning 77 US citizens from entering the country. They included the governors of a number of states, heads of federal departments and companies involved in the supply of weapons to the Ukrainian army.

A message posted on the official portal of the Russian Foreign Ministry says that in response to the ongoing expansion by the US authorities of the sanctions list, which includes Russian citizens, 77 US citizens are denied entry to the territory of the Russian Federation.



The Russian Foreign Ministry also stressed that any hostile actions against Russia, including increased sanctions pressure, would receive appropriate opposition and hit the US itself like a boomerang.

The expanded sanctions list includes the governors of the states of Alabama and Massachusetts, as well as a number of American businessmen and high-ranking military and political figures.

It is also reported that the EU heads of state plan to discuss strengthening anti-Russian sanctions, including the possibility of using frozen assets. In addition, the leadership of the EU countries will strengthen control over the possibility of circumventing sanctions by creating companies in third countries in order to supply Russia with sanctioned goods from the European Union.

Since the beginning of the Russian special operation in Ukraine, the EU countries have introduced nine sanctions packages, including a number of financial and trade restrictions.

    It's all bullshit...
    Blocking of accounts and confiscation of recognized foreign agents and sending funds to the NVO zone, but rather helping the families of the wounded and their families .. There are lards of dollars and Abramovich with his 3.5 just rests (by the way, he has a lot of property in Russia)
    Maybe it's enough for Russia to play soft bear cub and it's not time to growl?
    I’m sure the West would have squealed with a good obscenity .. You need to answer adequately, and not like someone else

    Enough already with our bustle and no matter what happens .. The people are tired!

      Victoria Nuland jumped at one time - they ran, begged for a visa.
      Of course, this is more of an injection on the imperial vanity of the Pan-Americans and will be discussed on the Amer channels - this is the calculation

      It is also necessary to impose sanctions on enterprises. who support the aggression of the collective West against Russia.

    My question is, when will there be an answer for the actions of the United States in relation to our diplomatic missions and consulates? Seizures of property, closures, expulsions, etc.? The steps taken earlier are very disproportionate in a much smaller direction ...

      So far, only concern .. Chubais has fled, but his followers have settled in power and other diasporas .. Even the GDP cannot always break through and calculate them .. This is a long process and Russia literally walks on a razor's edge.
      We do not want war, but we are not going to kneel either .. There is a subtle global policy going on .. Who wins:? If there is a real threat to Russia, our hand will not waver, in extreme cases, the "Perimeter" will work

        They are already fighting against us ... and not a cold, hybrid or some other war, but a real one, in which about 15 (according to the information that is in the public domain) of our guys have died ... we don’t want to - the factor is not significant . And the hucksters with the Kremlin in short - everyone is grabbing.
        Already, even I, a person drowning all the way for GDP, doubt whether he needs this victory ... I’m very, very afraid that my Motherland will be sold ...
        Losses are already tens of thousands, one might say .... but we all have "tank biathlon"

      They don’t even stop trading, and why should aligars and bureaucrats swear at them, because American politicians and aligars don’t need a trip to Russia, to put it mildly, unless it’s in the service, then ours is the opposite, it’s all money, children, real estate

      On September 1, 2017, the Russian Federation reduced the number of US diplomatic workers from 755 to 455. For the summer of 2021, the representation of mattress diplomats was reduced to 123 employees. I believe that as of February 2023 there are less than a hundred of them left. The US Consulate General in Yekaterinburg is closed, leaving St. Petersburg and the embassy in Moscow.
      In terms of real estate, mattresses were confiscated - the embassy's dacha in Serebryany Bor and storage facilities on Dorozhnaya Street in Moscow. So "kakuh" was shipped to each other in proportion. Yes

    Entering Russia? Are you seriously? While the US is confiscating our money, real estate and other assets, we have banned entry to those who are not going to come to us. Powerful answer.

    The United States is blocking assistance in eliminating the consequences of the earthquake in Syria, not a single Western country is helping, the flight of planes to Syria with humanitarian aid is prohibited, but only about Turkey is heard ((((and we are going there with help, what to expect in response? It took Italy less than a year after Russia's help from covid to impose sanctions on it, and Turkey will apparently be marked by shock deliveries of "bayraktars" to Ukraine and inciting Azerbaijan ((((

    Hard should be the answer.
    Not soft rhetoric.
    Seizure of property, blocking the accounts of foreign agents.
    Courts and all property under the hammer.
    In Crimea, they quickly found a vaccine against oligarchs and enemies from Ukraine.
    And the Americans need only the ideological type of Steven Seagal, let the rest sit overseas.
    You have to be tougher.

    Russian Foreign Ministry expands sanctions against US representatives

    Dead poultice is for the USA. To paraphrase one character from the film: - The Foreign Ministry has no method against the United States. Unfortunately.

    For some reason, I am sure that the number of Russian children living in the US under US sanctions is greater than the number of American children living in Russia under Russian sanctions. Accordingly, these “sanctioned” Americans are less worried about not being able to meet their children in Russia than “sanctioned” Russians are less worried about not being able to meet their children in the United States.

    Well, now for sure. Kherson with Kharkov is ours!
    And also Odessa and Nikolaev.
    From here I can already observe the trembling in the knees of our partners.

    A ban on the supply of metals, energy resources and other things for companies producing weapons that are supplied to Ukraine. Porsche, Raytheon, Lockheed Martin, etc. must not get nothing, from Russia, for N number of years. Maybe this will work.

    Both America and Europe ... Yes, and traitors in Russia need to be clearly recognized !!! While you put pressure on Russia as a state, you can see strange deflections. As soon as grief comes to specific families, grief can be swallowed by everyone who is involved in this. More precisely, Peter Nilsson can tell you about this!

    What is the entrance to the Russian Federation, here from Sakhalin, the last citizen shnik was taken out as soon as it all started, because it’s not good, because it’s dangerous. Whether it's a cleaner, a gardener, an expat? - home.
    Are you talking about governors? Yes, they themselves at gunpoint will not go here. At best, in the news, AI will twist the news and that's not a fact
