Comment (by neel):
`ExitRelay` and `ExitPolicy` is for exit relay operators, not clients. I
believe you are talking about clients.
I think what you're looking for is `ExcludeNodes`. To exclude a country,
you can use `ExcludeNodes {RU}` if you want to exclude Russian relays.
Replace `RU` with the country code you want to exclude (e.g. `DE` or `US`,
just put them inside `{}`). If you want to block multiple countries, you
can do them in a comma-separated list like `ExcludeNodes {RU}, {US}, {CN}`
If you are talking about exit relay operators, blocking destinations to a
country would consume resources, and could lead to false positives as IP
addresses could be reassigned, transferred, or even allocated to another
region than what's in the whois (e.g. cloud/VPS providers, multinational
corporations with their own ASNs).
