The Kremlin has banned officials of the German Defense Ministry s security and intelligence agencies entry to Russia. According to the diplomatic principle of reciprocity, senior members of the German security and intelligence agencies that are part of the German Defense Ministry system have been placed on Russian no-entry list, said the Russian Foreign Ministry in a statement.
The decision relates to EU sanctions against the leadership of the Main Directorate of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces (former GRU), announced in October because of cyberattacks on the German parliament in 2015. The EU believes that the Fancy Bear group, which is associated with the GRU, is behind the attack.
