Oh
I thought they said sport and politics are different.
When Arabs don’t want to play football with Israeli, same people said no sport and politics together.
When UN imposed sanctions on NK, sports was not politics.
NATO bombardment of Libya and Iraq?

Bros, let's be realistic here. If Ukraine has fired a missile into Russia or sponsored a terror attack on Russia and Russia invades like this, I don't think Ukraine will get this sympathy.

Russia annexed their territory Crimea, sponsored rebels in eastern Ukraine. As if that was not enough, he recognized the breakaway states, he didn't stopped there ooo, he invaded Ukraine just because Ukraine wants to be close to the west. Is it by force to align with somebody? Will you be happy if America or China forces Nigeria at gun point to align with them or get invaded and bombarded like Ukraine?

Putin needs to learn that in 21st century, alliance is not by force. Any country can choose their alliance. If Putin wants to keep Ukraine in its sphere of influence, then the logical thing to do was to befriend Ukraine, help them with cheap money, build their infrastructure etc and make Ukraine feel at home with them instead he wants to use intimidation and force.

Putin has damaged Russia beyond repair because of his stupidity. Very soon, the number of countries Russian citizens will be able to go will be the same with North Korea cos Putin has been trying so hard in the past 22 years to make Russia be like North Korea

One thing I'm sure of is that Putin never expected the kind of reactions his action against Ukraine have evoked.

Desperation is surely setting in soon, and he'll be back to the negotiating table with his tail between his legs.

Isolated and left alone

Absolutely no need for corrupt putin to do this invasion. Him and his cronies hate Western-style freedom but are ever ready to steal and hide money in Europe

Just like abacha hating on the west but hiding Nigeria money in swiss, america and Uk, yet the foolish citizens of nigeria blame the west
If a man is stupid to steal his family money and comes to your shop to buy food..would you refuse him?

Have you ever seen American leader come to buy a plaza in Nigeria or see the Uk politicians buy houses in Russia, rather than citizens of these failed leadership to take out their frustration on their country stealing elite they blame Nato, blame U.S, blame democracy

See money looted by russian thieving oligarchs and hidden in swiss banks

And today for the first time EU announced to us that Switzerland had accepted to expose dirty money Biden in Swiss banks by the thieving Russian Oligarchs.

I think such severe sanctions will keep certain greedy and desperate nations/leaders in proper check. We are not in the pre and early 20th centuries where some greedy land grabbing leaders attacked other nations to take over their resources and escaped unpunished.

The southerners are not happy that Fulani herdsmen have overrun their communities, raped their women and destroyed their properties and sources of livelihood. They have shouted foul here and demanded for justice. But we find them here ignorantly justifying the reckless move of Putin and his evil destruction of properties and killings in Ukraine.

Eggzactly what I was talking about....They caused a lot of mayhem to the world but they were not sanctioned or banned...This is to show you that the world is 110% unfair..They tested an experimental bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki....Just imagine...As if they are animals...Even Animals have a right..

See no nation in this whole world will attack Russia. We are talking about a country with the largest nuclear arsenal in the world. So I don't know where Putin is getting this fear from. His nuclear weapons alone has guaranteed Russia can never be attacked by NATO or US

Putin wants to be equal to America but unfortunately for him, he does not recognize that America and the west status in the world was not obtained by their military or nuclear weapons but by their shared value of open democracy, freedom and rule of law. This is why far majority of people of the world migrate to the west and take up their citizenship. They have built societies that are attractive to people. We are talking of societies where individuals can take the government to court and win them. Who born you as a Russian or Chinese to take the Russian or Chinese government to court or even criticize them openly. If you contemplate it,you will disappear.

If Putin had spent the last 22 years he has been in power building an open democratic society like the west instead of trying to be a "strong man", there would be no need for these countries to look west cos they would have been very comfortable with Russia.

It is a very good decision as they cannot get themselves ready but prevent the Ukrainians from preparing both physically and psychologically and it will also make Russia loose it's world cup playoff with Poland and Russian clubs ban from UEFA club competitions and with the IOC directives all other sports will follow by banning Russian athletes.

Some of these sanctions are dictated by the spur of the moment instead of reason and will backfire greatly when the dust settles.

FIFA and IOC that don't even allow human rights groups to protest during sports now make decisions of wide reaching political consequences.
They are all shooting themselves in the foot. The same organisations that have banned and punished teams and contestants in the past for refusing to play against people from countries that were in conflict is now asking sports organisers to ban a team from a country in conflict. Riding on public sympathy and opinions is really dangerous especially in sports because they won't be able to implement same measures when allies behave in similar fashion. Which could trigger civil unrest.

u talked about intellect, I was expecting u to show some but u didn't. And u think I am brainwashed by the western media?? U need to see the looks on the faces of putin's generals when he was addressing them about putting nuclear forces on alert. Putin is somehow isolated. Even his spy chief would have adviced him not to invade if he got the mind to do so. This move by putin is miscalculated. One thing I will never do is to underestimate how far putin can go, as in he can use nukes but how many countries is he going to nuke before they retaliate and level Russia? And u made reference to NATO and US getting away with so many invasion, how do you think they got a way with it? I'll tell u how. It's cus of money, power and influence. So before u talk about intellects, learn to read and understand
