Morgan Freeman, Rob Rainer were banned from Russia along with the dead senators – deadline

As the Kremlin apparently has no other urgent problems at the moment, more than 960 Americans are “permanently banned” from entering Russia. The list includes seemingly brainless people like Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and Hillary Clinton, but there are also eyebrow-raising names.

Such American threats are no longer welcome in Russia, such as Rob Rainer and Morgan Freeman – who directed and narrated a 2017 video of the Kremlin’s involvement in the 2016 US presidential election (see below) – along with Mark Zuckerberg and John McCain, who is one of them. of three deceased senators to make the list.

Rob Rainer responds to Vladimir Putin’s ban on entering Russia

Everyone is accused of spreading “Russophobia” according to a message that pulled the welcome mat.

In particular, Donald Trump is absent from the ban.

Below is a translated version of the Kremlin’s statement released over the weekend; the Russian version is here:

In the context of the response to the ongoing anti-Russian sanctions from the United States and in connection with requests for personnel on our national “stop list”, the Russian Foreign Ministry has published a list of American citizens banned from entering the Russian Federation.

We emphasize that the hostile actions taken by Washington, which are a boomerang against the United States itself, will continue to receive appropriate resistance. Russia’s counter-sanctions are forced and are aimed at forcing the US ruling regime, which is trying to impose a neocolonial “rule-based world order” on the rest of the world, to change its behavior in recognition of new geopolitical realities.

Russia does not seek confrontation and is open to an honest, mutually respectful dialogue that separates the American people, who have always been respected by us, by the US authorities who incite Russophobia and those who serve them. It is these people who are included in the Russian “black list”.
