Moscow Imposes New Sanctions Over UK’s ‘Anti-Russian Course

Russia’s foreign ministry says Moscow has imposed sanctions on 36 individuals in connection with the “anti-Russian course” adopted by the United Kingdom’s government.

The list includes politicians, security officials and journalists, the ministry said in a statement.

“Deliberately refusing constructive and constructive dialogue, London continues the line of confrontation, in collaboration with Washington, and spreads false information about Russia, and incites Russophobia,” it said.

The UK and its Western allies have rolled out sweeping sanctions on Russia over its offensive in Ukraine – measures which Moscow has persistently ‘railed’ against.
