Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev announced Thursday that Russia has banned imports of a variety foods from "the United States, the European Union, Australia, Canada and Norway."

The move was taken on orders from President Vladimir Putin in response to sanctions imposed on Russia by the West over the crisis in Ukraine. The ban has been introduced for one year.

But Russia isn't stopping there. Medvedev also said Russia is "considering banning Western carriers from flying over Russia on flights to and from Asia — a move that would significantly swell costs and increase flight time." Also on the table are "restrictions regarding imports of planes, navy vessels and cars, Medvedev said, but added that the government will realistically assess its own production potential." 

The New York Post reports: 

Russia depends heavily on imported foodstuffs — most of it from the West — particularly in the largest and most prosperous cities such as Moscow. Food and agricultural imports from the U.S. amounted to $1.3 billion last year, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and in 2013 the EU’s agricultural exports to Russia totaled 11.8 billion euros ($15.8 billion).
