“The Russian Foreign Ministry published a list of 12 Americans barred from entering the country on Saturday after the United States expanded sanctions on Moscow over the Ukraine crisis. The blacklist included persons related to legalizing and using torture against inmates of the Guantanamo prison in Cuba, and U.S. servicemen involved in abuses against detainees in the Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq or those who concealed crimes. In particular, Moscow banned entry for U.S. congressman James Moran, as a response to a similar move taken by Washington against Russian State Duma, lower house of the parliament, deputy Adam Delimkhanov.”
