INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Russia's foreign ministry said Tuesday that United States President Joe Biden and a dozen other top officials had been banned from
entering the country in a reciprocal response to United States sanctions.The measure, which also applies to Secretary of State Antony
Blinken and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, "is the consequence of the extremely Russophobic policy pursued by the current United States
administration", the Russian foreign ministry said in a statement.In response to Russia's military intervention in Ukraine, the United
States banned Russian President Vladimir Putin and Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov as well as adopting sanctions that have largely cut Russia
off financially from the rest of the world.Russia also put on its stop list Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley, National
Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, Central Intelligence Agency Director William Burns and White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki.Also on the
list are Deputy National Security Advisor Daleep Singh, United States Agency for International Development chief Samantha Power, Deputy
Treasury Secretary Adewale Adeyemo, and United States Export-Import Bank chief Reta Jo Lewis.Russia also banned from entry Biden's son
Hunter and former secretary of state and Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.The foreign ministry warned Moscow will soon
announce additional sanctions against a range of "Russophobic" United States officials, military officers, lawmakers, businessmen and media
