In response to the US sanctions, which are constantly expanding, against Russian politicians and public figures, 25 American citizens are included in the "stop list", the Russian Foreign Ministry said.

The list includes members of the McFaul-Yarmak group, which is developing recommendations on anti-Russian sanctions.

Sanctions have also been imposed on family members of United States President

Earlier, Joe Biden said that the United States would continue to support Ukraine in the war for territorial integrity, supply it with weapons and impose new sanctions on those who help Putin finance the war.

On June 27, Moscow imposed sanctions on 43 Canadian citizens.

This was explained by the imposition of sanctions by "countermeasures" in response to the actions of official Ottawa.

In Russia, on June 27, for the first time since 1918, there was a default of sovereign debt in foreign currency due to the imposed sanctions, which made it impossible to pay foreign creditors.

For months, Russia has been finding ways to circumvent the sanctions imposed after the Kremlin's invasion of Ukraine.

But at the end of the day on Sunday, the grace period of interest payments of $ 100 million ended, which is considered a default in case of default.

There will be no official default announcement.

This is usually done by international rating agencies, but they have all suspended operations in Russia.

Foreign sanctions have been imposed on Russia for a full-scale war against Ukraine.

However, the Russian leadership is looking for ways to circumvent the sanctions.
