Now Russia wants to look at sanctions against power house nations like Iceland, Montenegro, Norway, Albania, Lichtenstein, Georgia and Ukraine.... Yeah make sure you invade a country, take a section of it and make it into Russia, then put sanctions on the nation you invaded. Only in Putin's fantasy world.

MOSCOW, July 30. /TASS/. Russia may take retaliatory measures against the seven countries that have backed EU sanctions.
"Certainly, retaliatory steps may follow," presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov told the media. "We say once again that the principle of reciprocity is a fundamental one."
Seven European countries — Montenegro, Albania, Iceland, Norway, Lichtenstein, Ukraine and Georgia have reaffirmed to the EU Council they prolonged the participation in the EU’s sanctions against Crimea and Sevastopol till June 23, 2016, as follows from a statement by the EU high representative for foreign affairs and security policy, Federica Mogherini, published on the EU Council’s website on July 28.
