Brussels blasts Russia over entry ban for EU diplomats
President of the European Council Charles Michel (pictured left), President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen (pictured right), and President of the European Parliament David Sassoli (pictured center) condemned on Friday Russia’s decision to impose restrictive measures against eight EU nationals, including Sassoli himself.
The bloc leaders issued a joint statement describing Russia’s move as “unacceptable,” and claiming that the ban “lacks any legal justification.”
Kremlin unveiled earlier today that the sanctions came as a reciprocal response to the EU’s decision to impose measures on six Russian nationals in March.
