I wonder... why didn't FIFA ban the US when they were invading Iraq? (for nothing btw) Nobody was complaining back then when the US soldiers were bombing Baghdad and hanging Saddam Hussein live on TV. Suddenly everybody lost their shit when Russia is doing the same thing. I am not saying Russia is right to invade Ukraine. However, the reaction they are getting from the west is simply showing how two-faced the west really is.

The US nuked Japan ffs. NUKED. Nobody cared.

That's what disappointed me with FIFA or UEFA. They're like having a double standard that doesn't make sense. It is one proof of how the power of a handful of figures influences the neutrality of a global institution, sadly. If it didn't, there shouldn't be such a rule now. As a football observer of course I am disappointed, they have violated their own rules to become an independent institution unaffected by the political, economic countries of the world. This proves discrimination still exists.

I get your point here, @mindrust. That is why I also agree with @masulum, that FIFA and any organization that would intend to do such suspension because of political conflicts, public safety and or any other matters, they must be consistent, fair and equivalent in making decisions for all. Because if not, it shows how personal biases are ignited and are emerging during these times.

FIFA must be consistent with regulations like this, if they don't want to include the names of countries attacking other countries because of political problems until a war occurs like Russia, then in the future they must do the same thing. It would be unfair if this was only done for Russia, considering that football should not be associated with politics. If I'm not mistaken, in the past when Israel and Palestine had political problems, FIFA did not take serious action against Israeli football. (CMIIW). So, if this is the first step from FIFA, and the same thing should be done in the future.

With all of those suspensions that the Russian teams are getting for every sport just after the sanctions. I'm expecting that there will be more of it and even there are a lot of suspensions that they've received.
I've seen that some of the sports have remained neutral and still allow Russian players to play for their sport. There's the other news a few days ago that FIFA will allow them to play but they won't be under the flag of Russia.

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?

Russia had advanced to the second round of qualifiers and they were supposed to play against Poland on March 24, however due to the suspension not only they will be unable to play but it seems Poland is going to move automatically to the Final of Path B to dispute a ticket to the world cup, it is unfortunate that something like this is happening but I think we all knew it was coming, in the sport world Russia had been sanctioned several times already, and now with the invasion of Ukraine it seems many sport federations simply decided it was too much and took measures against Russia.

Earlier Poland announced that it won't play against Russia for the invasion it has done on Ukraine. By the time it seemed like an easy go for Russia to enter the final of B. Now the official announcement have made Poland get into the final. Russia shouldn't have done this. To build a nation it requires years and years. Now the sufferings were to the citizens, think of this players. With big dreams they might've given the best, but in the middle everything got vanished. Then to play the same series, they don't know when this gonna happen.
