I suggest never block anyone.   It's better to use honeytraps/sandboxes.
Use a geoip library (http://pythonhosted.org/python-geoip/ or similar)

if ipfrom == 'ru':
  redirect(... nice static page ...)

If you use nginx you can do that almost out of the box with many other
options such as throttling
