Sanctions are detrimental and Russia and Europe. This dead-end way. But Russia's population are mostly supported sanctions. Because Russian unhappy that Europe and the United States establish a NATO base around Russia and help to arrange a military coup in Ukraine.
And, of course, Russian are not happy that the international community has accused Russia in the war in the south-east of Ukraine. They believe these charges unfair, because Russia is not at war there. Volunteers - it's just volunteers.
And when the Russian believe that they are right (with them the truth and God), they will support any sanctions.

Russia has not officially declared war against Ukraine. But i think we can all read between the lines what is happening.

Sanctions are detrimental to mostly germany because its relies on the gas to fund their industry. This is how the germans control europe. NATO has kept the peace in Europe since world war 2! They keep the french and germans from starting wars on the European continent and prevent them from invading russia. Remember! It was the the French, Germans, and mongolians that Invaded russia! Not the British and not the US. Putin isn't happy with just taking crimea. He was wants that land bridge to moldovia. He doesn't even care about the money he gets from european gas. Its all about pride for the rodina? Do you think NATO will ever go to war with Russia. It didn't go to war during the cold war. I don't have after iraq and afghanistan they are going to attack russia. China is the target now.
Putin blocks food buying with EU and declares it as "sanctions".
Does it make sense ?
Traditionally food providers used this in war times as sanctions not food buyers.
If EU had declared the same thing as sanctions against Russia, there would probably
have been some oppositions in most EU-countries since food is a sensitive issue
historically, Russians will remember Leningrad in WW2.
So, at first sight this looks as if Putin does another round of EU-sanctions against himself.
Blocking Russian gas to Europe would seem more logical as "sanction".
But maybe it's not so easy with existing treaties, I remember this possibility
was discussed when the pipelines were built.
What better things could Putin do as sanctions ?
He could ban certain persons that he doesn't like from entering Russia
Boycott European sport events
Forbid airplanes to fly over Russia
But that only puts him more into isolation, since there is international consensus
that such steps are inappropriate.
Forbid Snowden to publish documents ? Bad for Europe, but good for USA.
Forbid German or English speaking in Russia ?
But that was his main argument to enter Ukraine : attempts to ban Russian language.

I think Putin is considering it.
( But overall I guess the idea behind the ban on foreign foods is to deprive European/American sellers of their market and therefore - profits.)
Anyway, this is what I've read today on Dmitry Olshansky's ( Russian journalist, editor) F.B. page;
"There is something I have to tell you, honestly.
For a few months I've been watching this unfolding horror; the people burned alive, pregnant women and women with young children sitting in pools of blood, the airstrikes on Lugansk, that has now neither electricity nor water, I saw this woman with her legs blown off, I saw the burning city of Gorlovka, the hypocrisy of Americans, the indifference of Liberals ( Russian "democrats",) I watched the rebels who are in desperate need of tanks and artillery, who experience shortage of the ammunition, of food, of everything.
I was watching all this and thought to myself - well, what will be the response of Kremlin, which I'd like to trust so much?
How it's going to stop all that?
What's about that "red line" and "Russian world?"
And Kremlin came up with response
I will be not allowed to eat Norwegian fish from now on.
The price of food will rise in Russia while in Europe it will be lots of cheap produce for them. Russians can't even go abroad without the risk that their travel company might go bankrupt, and if Putin carries on like this we will be seeing queues for food in Russia again.

Video of the Chechen war is very similar to the video of the south-east of Ukraine.
But the situation in the south-east is very different from the Chechen.
