MOSCOW — Russia announces an export ban on more than 200 types of foreign products and equipment until the end of 2022, as part of Moscow’s response to sanctions imposed over the Ukraine conflict.

“The list includes technological, communication and medical equipment, vehicles, agricultural machinery and electrical equipment — more than 200 types of goods in total,” according to an order signed by Russia’s Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin.

Moscow has been facing an avalanche of coordinated sanctions by Western governments and boycotts by private companies over its invasion of Ukraine.
