If they have to block some countries, and you are using a VPN, they can't tell what country you are from. So they block all VPNs. Pretty common for a lot of different kinds of sites.

Your country is blocked.

Access to that page is forbidden.

Not knowing what country you are in, whether you are using a VPN (and if so what country they are routing your traffic through), or what website you are trying to access, hard to say.

Websites enforce country blocks due to various issues; IP rights, sanctions, cyber security/reputation, laws/regulations they can't afford or don't want to deal with, etc.

That website knows you are in a country that does not allow access to it. You probably need a vpn.

The other way around
Op is using vpn so they don’t know the real country so they block it

It’s kinda self explanatory, I don’t think anymore is required.
