  Russia's Foreign Ministry has announced that in response to the West's anti-Russian actions, it has expanded its list of sanctions against England. Russia's Foreign Ministry announced in a statement on Friday that Moscow has placed 54 British citizens on the sanctions list, according to the a news agency. According to the statement from Russia's Foreign Ministry, a number of journalists from the BBC and the Guardian and Daily Telegraph newspapers will join the list of people barred from entering Russia. According to the statement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Russia, "Karim Khan", the prosecutor of the International Criminal Court, who was involved in issuing the arrest warrant for "Vladimir Putin", the President of the Russian Federation, is on this list.

At the end of last March, the International Criminal Court issued an arrest warrant for Russian President Vladimir Putin on charges of war crimes in Ukraine. Moscow has consistently denied allegations against Russian forces of committing crimes during the year-long war with Ukraine. This international court has issued an arrest warrant for the Russian president, arguing that Putin is suspected of illegally deporting children and illegally transferring residents of the territory of Ukraine to the Russian Federation.
