Russia imposed sanctions on 62 Canadian citizens on Friday, barring them from entering the country, according to the Russian Foreign Ministry.

In a written statement, the ministry said the step was taken in response to Canada's sanctions on Russian government officials, journalists, experts and Patriarch Kirill, head of the Russian Orthodox Church.
