Montenegro's foreign ministry said Thursday that Rogozin is among some 50 Russian politicians and businesspeople who are not allowed to travel to the small Balkan country, AP reported.

Montenegro, a traditional Russian ally that now wants to join the EU and NATO, has adopted Western sanctions against Moscow for its role in the Ukrainian crisis.

Rogozin, a close ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin, recently said Montenegro would "regret" joining the Western military alliance which in December issued a formal membership invitation.
