In response to American sanctions, to exclude Russian diplomats and to ban certain senior officials on American soil, Moscow in turn retaliated: several officials in the Biden administration, including the director of the FBI, have been banned from to travel to Russia.

MOSCOW:
Russia on Friday asked 10 US diplomats to leave the country in retaliation for Washington s expulsion of the same number of Russian diplomats over alleged malign activity and suggested the US ambassador return home for consultations.
The measures, part of a broader retaliatory package, were approved by President Vladimir Putin, as a response to an array of US government sanctions imposed on Moscow a day earlier, including curbs to its sovereign debt market.
Though Moscow responded swiftly and with measures designed to hurt US interests and shrink its diplomatic footprint, it left the door open for dialogue and did not kill off the idea, proposed by President Joe Biden, of a Putin-Biden summit.
