The Kremlin will expand restrictions against British politicians over what Russia calls a “wave of anti-Russian hysteria”, it has been reported.
The Russian Tass news agency claimed the country’s foreign ministry said on Saturday that more politicians will be added to a blacklist, with other reports suggesting those on the list include Prime Minister Boris Johnson, Foreign Secretary Liz Truss, and Defence Secretary Ben Wallace.
According to Tass, the department said in a statement: “This list will be expanded shortly by including more of British politicians and members of the Parliament in it, who keep inflaming the anti-Russian hysteria, push the collective West towards the use of the language of threats with Moscow and are engaged in a dishonest encouragement of Kyiv’s Neo-Nazist regime.”
