ExpandI'll believe the boycott crap when i see it happening,because all that it has been up to now is talking,where are the megastars saying they won't compete If the Russians are allowed in?,i don't hear them.
Also Europe is not big enough to cause a split,Africa and Asia exist. ''diversity,diversity'' i keep hearing,guess what ? they don't give one tiny piece of shit about this and there huge[bigger] parts of the olympic movement,if Europe is dumb enough to do this,that doesn't mean the games will be cancelled,because guess what that would mean ? That All the talk about diversity is ''woke pr and ONLY EUROPEANS AND AMERICANS MATTER'',oh that would go over so well,with the rest of the planet and athletes,i'm sure no one would have anything to say about it,right ?
The British Goverment will not allow GB to attend an Olympics with Russians.
Expandwho's surprised ?and more importantly,who cares ?
Because it will probably split the Olympic movement in two.
ExpandSuch a strange decision so close to the championships, unnecessary backlash and drama caused. Maybe this is why we only took 13.
GB will likely withdraw soon as well.

sounds like France is u turning. Ukraine will withdraw from the IOC and I suspect so will Poland and a few others.

I can see the IOC cancelling Paris as I don’t think they will back down.
ExpandThat seems like a major stretch,them being absent isn't suddenly gonna make countries and federations Ban the ''evil ones'' sorry not sorry,the sport world doesn't care that much
Politics does through.
ExpandThis doesn’t seem wise.
The Ukrainian government has barred its national sports teams from competing at international events which also include athletes from Russia and its ally Belarus.
It’s a risky strategy. It relies on the pressure of their absence causing federations and countries then ban Russians and Belarusians. Could well work.

Does US public want to ban Russian players from NHL? Or is Ovechkin & co. still roaming the ice rinks?
Apparently the poll said they would support that.
ExpandWTA follows suit and criticizes the Wimbledon decision. Guess Boris Johnson trying to win back some votes lost in the pandemic ain't gonna be popular outside of UK.
Martina Navratilova also condemned the decision.
It be popular among the public of many countries. A poll the ither showed the majority of Americans wanted a ban on Russian players at American tournaments.
I think Wimbledon will be cancelled going by the ATP statement
ExpandRussian & Belarussian players are banned from Wimbledon.

Obviously Russians competing for Kazakhstan (Rybakina, Putintseva) will be allowed to take part.
What’s the betting CAS makes a rapid decision if Russian and Belarusian tennis players go to court.
