Russia says it has radically expanded its visa ban list for EU officials in response to new sanctions
MOSCOW, Dec 28 (Reuters) - Russia's Foreign Ministry said on Saturday it had responded to a new package of European Union sanctions by significantly expanding a list of EU and EU member state officials banned from entering Russia.
The European Union on Monday imposed a 15th package of sanctions against Russia, including tougher measures against Chinese entities and more vessels from Moscow's so-called shadow fleet.
Russia's Foreign Ministry said in a statement it had responded by adding more unnamed "representatives of security agencies, state and commercial organisations of EU countries, and citizens of EU member states responsible for providing military aid to Kyiv" to its stop list.
