The Philippines banned two US senators and threatened to introduce visa restrictions for Americans entering the country, the president's spokesperson said on Friday, if Washington pushes ahead with sanctions against Filipino officials involved in jailing a leading opposition leader. Senators Richard Durbin and Patrick Leahy were banned from entering the country after introducing a provision in the 2020 US budget.
