Russia said it banned entry to 500 Americans, including former president Barack Obama, in response to sanctions imposed by Washington. 

Russia's foreign ministry, in a statement, said that the move comes after US refusal last month to give visas to media traveling with Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov to the United Nations.
 
"Washington should have learned a long time ago that not a single hostile attack on Russia will go unpunished," the statement by Russia's foreign ministry added.
