UEFA allowed Russian junior teams to participate, IIHF to follow ?

[lawrence]

As one of the top hockey nations in the world Russia should be allowed to send a team and keep politics out.

That is impossible in Russia. Sport an politics are always hand to hand.

It doesnt work like that, anthem and flag will be used at parade in Moscow

They don't have parades for juniors.

Collective guilt is a bad look on our so called liberal democracies.

Merely being junior aged frees no one of all responsibility.

Country went nuts over Valieva case, age is not a stopper, if they win, they will arrange a parade

Collective guilt is not good, I agree, individuals should not be discriminated. National team, even a junior one is not an individual though

Liberalism or whatever you guys call it this days is not God, just like everything in life rules are needed but human experience always is flexible and should be flexible

Juniors?
Who cares at this point anyways. International hockey is a joke due to greed and virtue signalling from the NHL and IIHF.

Multiple federations have already stated that UEFA can go f*** itself, they won't play against Russia or Belarus. And I would expect more to follow this decision.

UEFA has not ever ban Belarus. Their national team and clubs play in every possible tournament.

Your statement is blatantly false.

I wouldn't be shocked if Russian Football switches over to AFC, I'm not exactly sure of what that process entails but seems to make sense if countries like Ukraine, Poland, Latvia, and possibly England are going to boycott Russian games and put UEFA in a bind (causing those national teams to "forfeit" is a complicated situation given their reasons). Their sub-federation would be CAFA which is a bit of an awkward fit (Afghanistan, Iran, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan) but it works geographically.

Yeah I apologize, only the Finnish FA has included Belarus in their statement

England won't play Russian youth teams despite UEFA reinstatement, says FA

England's youth teams will not play against Russia, the Football Association (FA) said on Tuesday, after UEFA announced plans to reinstate Russia's Under-17 sides to European competition for the first time since the country's invasion of Ukraine.

Hey Folks,

Since politics cannot be refrained from being discussed, have to close this thread. Sorry
