MOSCOW (Sputnik) - The US Department of the Treasury imposed sanctions on Wednesday against the Rossiya Segodnya media group, RIA Novosti, RT, Sputnik, and Ruptly. The sanctions affected Rossiya Segodnya and RT Editor-in-Chief Margarita Simonyan and a number of other senior executives.
Restrictions on the dissemination of information by US media outlets in Russia will follow in response to Washington's sanctions against the Rossiya Segodnya media group, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told Sputnik.
"There can be no tit-for-tat measures. There is no state news agency in the United States, and there is no state television channel in the United States. But, of course, measures that will restrict their media outlets in disseminating their information will follow," Peskov said, commenting on Washington's sanctions against Rossiya Segodnya.
He added that some restrictions are already in effect.
