US issues 'Putin list' of 210 top Russians but avoids more sanctions

The US has published a list of 114 Russian politicians and 96 oligarchs, some close to the President, as part of a sanctions law aimed at punishing Russia for meddling in the US election.
 
The US stressed those named had not been hit with new sanctions, although some have already been targeted.

Congress passed the sanctions law in August.
 
President Donald Trump signed it while making his reservations clear. 

The Kremlin said the list could damage the reputation of those named.
