Russia has banned five British citizens from entering the country
The Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced a ban on entry into the country for five British citizens, including *The Washington Post* journalist Catherine Belton and *The i Paper* correspondent Richard Holmes.
Katherine Belton specializes in investigations related to Russia. She previously worked for the Financial Times, Reuters, and other international media outlets.
Richard Holmes is an investigative journalist, Pulitzer Prize finalist, and security correspondent for the British publication The i Paper.
Also added to the sanctions list were Alexander Browder, an employee of the Henry Jackson Society think tank; Alice Loger, executive director of the humanitarian organization Committed to Good; and Richard Westbury, chairman of the Chelsea Group.
The Russian Foreign Ministry stated that this decision was a response to the alleged “anti-Russian rhetoric” of British officials, the dissemination of information about Russia, and the UK’s supply of weapons to Ukraine.

Russian dictator Vladimir Putin made yet another cynical statement, claiming that the full-scale war in Ukraine is allegedly nearing its end.
Putin has authorized the army to invade other countries to free Russians who have been imprisoned there.
