VIDEO | Morgan Freeman is on Putin's blacklist: Here's why
Morgan Freeman is on the blacklist of Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin.
"Washington Post"Morgan Freeman's name is somewhat surprising among all politicians," he said, adding that the Russians had stated in a statement that Freeman had released a video in which he "accused Russia of plotting against the United States and calling for a fight against our country."
The video was shot in 2017 by the Committee to Investigate Russia.
In the video, the actor allegorically tells a fictional film script, talks about Vladimir Putin's political path and rise, and mentions how he uses social media to spread his propaganda.
The place of that list published by the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs means that the mentioned 963 Americans are not allowed to enter Russia, and the list itself has a dominant symbolic meaning. It also features Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
