In particular, British Home Secretary Yvette Cooper was included in Russia’s blacklist.
The Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has imposed sanctions against 30 British citizens. This was reported by the press service of the Russian Foreign Ministry on Tuesday, November 26.
The Russian Foreign Ministry said that in response to “hostile actions by the British side,” a decision was made to include on Russia’s blacklist “a number of representatives of the political establishment, the military bloc, who showed themselves in the anti-Russian sphere of high-tech enterprises, as well as the British journalistic corps.”
Russia’s stop list includes, in particular, British Home Secretary Yvette Cooper, British Finance Minister Rachel Reeves and ten other members of the country’s Cabinet of Ministers.
“Work on expanding Russia’s stop list in response to hostile actions by the British authorities will continue,” assured the Russian Foreign Ministry.
Let’s remember that the UK imposed sanctions on 30 tankers from Russia’s “shadow fleet”, carrying oil and petroleum products worth billions of pounds. This is the largest sanctions package of its kind.
