Zakharova: US Secretary of State is still under sanctions against Russia.

Zakharova: US Secretary of State is still under sanctions against Russia.

According to Russia Today, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova announced that US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has not been removed from the sanctions list and that everything said about this is a lie.

In an interview with TASS on Sunday, she emphasized: “Currently, Russian sanctions against the US Secretary of State have not been lifted and everything that has been said is a lie.”

Previously, there were reports on social media that Russia may have lifted sanctions against Rubio after talks between the foreign ministers of this country and the US.

Rubio was included in the Russian sanctions list against US citizens in May 2022 (spring 1401) (in response to Washington’s action to sanction Russian officials and citizens after the start of a special military operation in Ukraine), based on which Rubio faces a ban on entering the Russian Federation.

In November 2024, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov announced that Russia would not lift sanctions on Rubio as long as Sergei Lavrov was under US sanctions.
