Guantanamo List

The "Guantanamo List" (список Гуантанамо) is the list of US politicians and citizens barred from entry into Russia for being responsible for human rights abuses, primarily in Guantanamo Bay detention camp, a "symmetric response" to the Magnitsky List.

History
Initially the list, compiled in December 2012, contained 11 US officials responsible for running the Guantanamo prison. The Russian law to match the Magnitsky Act was signed by Vladimir Putin on January 28, 2012. In January 2013 Aleksey Pushkov, a Russian Parliamentarian, announced that the list had been expanded to 60 people, to include people related to the prosecution of Russian arms dealer Viktor Bout, a prosecution which was described as politically motivated, and of a Russian drug dealer Konstantin Yaroshenko, allegedly kidnapped by the US in Liberia.

In July 2014, the Guantanamo list was further expanded with 10 people responsible for Abu Ghraib torture and prisoner abuse and 2 more related to Guantanamo, a symmetric response to the list of people and organizations sanctioned during the Russo-Ukrainian War.
