Russia's foreign ministry on Wednesday announced an entry ban on 63 Japanese nationals including Prime Minister Fumio Kishida, in retaliation for the Japanese government's sanctions against Russia over the war in Ukraine.
   Among the 63 Japanese are Chief Cabinet Secretary Hirokazu Matsuno, Foreign Minister Yoshimasa Hayashi, Finance Minister Shunichi Suzuki, Defense Minister Nobuo Kishi and Justice Minister Yoshihisa Furukawa.
   They also include members of the press, such as Tsuneo Watanabe, editor-in-chief of the Yomiuri Shimbun daily, and those involved in the campaign for the return of four Russian-held islands, which Japan calls its Northern Territories.
   In a statement, the Russian ministry condemned the Kishida administration as launching an unprecedented anti-Russian campaign using unacceptable language, including slander and direct threats.
   It claimed that the Kishida administration is following experts and media personnel steeped in Western views and taking steps to destroy good neighborly relations and undermine Russia's economy and international standing.
