Finally, the Russian football federation or RFS appealed the sanctions that had been given by FIFA and UEFA against the Russian national team which was disqualified from the world cup play-off round and also Spartak Moscow who had to exit the last 16 of the UEFA Europe League early after being disqualified by UEFA. Strict steps were taken by the Russian football federation considering that there was no connection at all between the invasion and the war with Ukraine. FIFA and UEFA have criticized the political actions taken by some players and supporters when providing support for Palestine but currently UEFA and FIFA have quite different views with Russia invasion right now.
I've been seeing that political stand when it comes to the other countries in the middle-east part of attacks. They have nothing to say with their stand towards those affected countries but they're too aggressive when it comes to Russia. Well, we all don't like the invasion and what Russia is doing but it is that they're quiet when it comes to those countries unlike what they're taking action right now. Sports is what makes different race unites and hopefully this division will make them unite again.
Topic: FIFA and UEFA has suspended Russian Football teams. - page 12. (Read 1751 times)
The country that started this war is Russia. Of course, there would be sanctions in some way, but I don't think football teams played a role in this. I think they could have continued the tournament. However, if there were teams with statements that could defend the war, they could have been eliminated. I have a lot of Russian friends who do not approve of Putin's war decision.
It was in the news yesterday that FIFA and UEFA has together suspended Russian Football teams and clubs indefinitely.
It was said that all the teams that were supposed to play against Russia in their forth coming friendlies and world cup qualifiers vowed to boycott the match, so at the end, FIFA and UEFA had no choice but the suspend Russia from all international matches.
Russia in response to the suspension has come out to say that the suspension is discriminatory.
What do you guys think of this development? How will this affect the players and athletes as well as workers in/for the team, how about the forth coming world cup?

The suspension is meant to be discriminatory, that is the whole purpose of singling out this nation that has invaded and caused the biggest war in Europe since World War 2 ended - that's a bit of a dumbass response from the Russian government but that's no surprise. It's unfortunate that Russian footballers will suffer in their careers and they cannot even speak out against the war without being persecuted within Russia, along with all the auxiliary staff who will lose jobs - there are vast amounts of workers who will not be able to feed their families soon. This all pales into comparison with the suffering the Russian army is committing against the people of Ukraine however, so Russian's will get no sympathy here.

Don't just base your argument around Russia invading a peaceful country like they are the first country to invade another country, and in truth this is to show that Politics and political situations have an effect on sports.
FiFA and UEFA have done nothing bad compared to what Russia has done after they have invaded Ukraine. Many civilians have died and Russia is not taking it easy at all than to take over Ukraine. Ukraine is suffering all because of Russia invasion, tell me what FIFA has done or what UEFA has done that is bad, Ukrainians are suffering, why should Russians too suffers? I'm also particularly concerned about the stigma that some of their athletes will he facing for just being Russian, i hope it doesn't drive any of them into taking their own lives.
It is all caused by their president, their president should be balmmed, Russia should be segregated alone to itself but I know China will more benefit from this. The bans will be lifted, but you can't bring people back to life and wipe their heads of traumatic memories.
The effect of the war will be in the heart of Ukrainian mostly because they are losing heavily. They are losing apart from military and weapons, they are losing innocent civilians and families . This is going to be traumatic for them at the end of the war. Russia is mostly losing only personal in the battle field. This time is not the best for Europe.

I do not think this is sport mixing with politics, I do not see anything bad to sanction Russia, Russia invaded a peaceful country, killing innocent people. What could be more than massacre?
What about the stigma Ukrainian athletes will bear, like for instance the feeling of losing their whole family or losing a home. One one hand we could sympathize with Russian players and say that they're facing hard times, but in comparison we have football players in Ukraine who are literally being shot at and killed. What's worse?
The bans will be lifted, but you can't bring people back to life and wipe their heads of traumatic memories.
This is very terrible for innocent sport men just because of one person's decisions many are suffering it . This is even their source of income, no more flow of money. The funniest thing about it is that the players are not in support of puttins action , maybe this is the way Russia can be punished for invading Ukraine.
^ I don't know how it works or how it will punish by the law and probably Putin deserves it to be punished. Not only athletes here are affected, not only the gambling industry has been affected, all major international businesses that own by Russian investors was been now suffering, it may also be a threat to collapse their economy. Now, it suspended the Russian football team and I think they already accept their loss. I hope soon will be okay and back to normal.

Is this so wide that the FIFA sector, which should be more objective, is no longer independent? As far as I know in sports whether this is really the right thing to do, especially in football, there shouldn't be sanctions like this. I know there will be many who will oppose what I say. Just want to see that this situation is a sanction that should also be applied to Israel if FIFA really wants to impose sanctions. You know the annexation there, right? Why doesn't FIFA give sanctions too? the answer is only one and let it mumble in your mind and think for a moment to ask the same question. Which is why, because has Israel been around for years?
I strongly agree that sanctions are indeed necessary and should be given to teach a lesson to countries involved in war, but what the Russian Football Association has said in my opinion is also quite reasonable, because with the implementation of sanctions imposed on Russia, FIFA has violated the basic rights and also the principle of sport that should not be involved in politics, besides this, it is precisely now that FIFA has shown a discriminatory attitude by imposing sanctions on Russia and in fact they have not taken a stand on what Israel has done so far to Palestine, I think now this is precisely why people began to blaspheme and question the attitude of FIFA which seems to have double standards for applying sanctions to Russia.

If you want my answer with emotions, my answer will be good decision. Because Russia stands on war was not changed yet.Most of us not get out from the corona impact and Corona news. What made Russian to fight and kill the people of Ukraine. Only the International idea person can give a clear explanation for this. After corona, many country was recovering only now, but this war news was unacceptable to many country peoples.

I guess no.The sport should not follow any kind of politic, while they already got economy sanction but we still ban their sport access ~LOL. I still remember while some football player using a word after the match "Pray for Palestine" and guess what.
FIFA responding should not using sport as politic.
things like this can not be separated because it is very difficult to separate greed from brotherhood
Russian want to add Ukraine to the list of pro-Russia countries as the invasion has been aimed at achieving that aim, I don't personally see anything wrong with FIFA sanction on Russia from the world football league even the premier league match have all aired in solidarity with Ukraine.
But FIFA have final decision after banned Russia for participating on world cup play off round against with Poland, I think FIFA still not remember with how hundred thousand Palestine citizen victim after Israel invasion and punish almost several player when celebrate with support freedom to Palestine, but now have different think when Ukraine get invasion by Russian and FIFA mixing politic with football. politic and football.
I do not think this is sport mixing with politics, I do not see anything bad to sanction Russia, Russia invaded a peaceful country, killing innocent people. What could be more than massacre? Nikita Mazepin which is a formula one driver has been scaked today and there should be more to come by sanctions. There is nothing bad for Russia to ceasefire but just want to take down Ukraine and turn it to a country it controls. I believe Russia has been expecting all these sanctions as a result of its action on Ukraine invasion. I do not support anyone or any country but the war should end which is one of the reason for sanctions and a way Russia will later not be able to fund the war. 
This FIFA involvement in political matters may further lead to more crisis as Vladimir Putin has announced that Russia will play in the 2022 FIFA world cup or there will not be the world cup at all, this speaks to further threats to global peace. The football tournament is aimed at unifying the world and promoting peace but getting involved in political war matters as sensitive as this will deter global peace.
How can we verify this information you have put out ? Because these are strong words capable of causing more confusion to the world. Any link to that announcement containing those words should be provided please so readers. We know Putin to be capable of causing more troubles as he has not given up yet despite the sanctions. Can we see the link .
Well there was a strong word if that was actually said. The world leaders are really trying hard to manage the war (which Putin says is invasion). I hope the fight stops as talks are still going on but to no success yet. The third round of discussion will continue on Monday between Russia and Ukraine.
There is no gain war , even the Russian Army is losing personal, tanks, helicopters and fighter planes.
