Ukraine war: Russia bans Boris Johnson from country over Ukraine war



Russia has banned Prime Minister Boris Johnson and other senior ministers from entering Russia over the UK's "hostile" stance on the war in Ukraine.


Foreign Secretary Liz Truss, Defence Secretary Ben Wallace and 10 other senior politicians - mostly members of the Cabinet - have also been barred.


Moscow said the decision had been made in retaliation to the UK's sanctions against it since it invaded Ukraine.


In March, Moscow imposed a similar ban against US President Joe Biden.
