Committing war crimes, murdering civilians, and bombing hospitals is not “politics”
As I said in my other reply further down, I'm admitting that a sport is often not apolitical. But I also think that good sportsmanship should always come before politics.
But your point now is really difficult. The pain that the Ukrainians have to endure is unimaginable, but there has never been a time where blatant generalisations were the right thing to do.
