FIDE Women’s Grand Prix Collapses into "Chaos" as Players Withdraw

Trash. Sports are supposed to be apolitical, regardless
of war.

Did players withdraw when USA illegally invalid Iraq and killed over 2 million people?

Nope.

The citizens are separate from their government.

What would you do if people you know were fighting a war to protect your city and could die any day though? Would you say: "My husband could get shot in a trench any minute now, but I guess I'm gonna go there and play a game and pretend that everything is fine"? Or would you try to use all resources available to create as much pressure as possible to end the war so you don't have to bury people that's important to you?

I thought chess masters were beyond brainwashing, but apparently the IQ is relegated to 64 squares.

You said many things, but for some reason you forgot to mention how Russians razed cities, kidnapped children, and tortured civilians. Russia could end everything today if they went back to their country.

Yes, because Russia has no black market, all money is pre-laundered and there are absolutely no bio labs there.

That's actually surprisingly insightful, you know... considering
I would recommend informing first before posting something about war, it seems incredible that all the west is acting like they haven't done any war, haven't bombed anyone since WW2, but if your source of information is the BBC what can we expect.
My question is simple.
Will the war end while Biden promises more funds?
America must have a war somewhere to keep its economy going.
Just my opinion.
Really sad this post is becoming about the war only, but to be clear : Ukraine is now engaged in a war of resistance against unilateral foreign invasion. Of course the US has an interest in supporting an ally against the influence of a rival; still, it is an Ukrainian matter first and foremost. It is indeed in some way similar to the 2003 Iraq invasion, except here Ukraine would be Iraq and Russia would be the US and is engaging in an imperialist war exactly like the US did in the past.

So if you're serious about being against imperialism and the deeds of the US in other countries, you should support Ukraine against imperialist Russia, and recognize its autonomy and sovereignty (including joining NATO and the EU if it so wishes...).

You are shamelessly manipulating facts and lying.
Not America annexed Crimea from Ukraine in 2014 - BUT RUSSIA!
Not America started war in Ukraine in 2014 (Donetsk and Lugansk districts) - BUT RUSSIA!
Not America started full-scale invasion in Ukraine on 24th February 2022 - BUT RUSSIA!
Not America today is killing civil Ukrainians, bombing Ukrainian cities, kidnapping kids, destroying Ukrainian economics - BUT RUSSIA!
End of matter.
time to feed the trolls don't worry russian people USA united States of America still loves you were just using Santa helpers .as for the players hope things straighten out for them and the things get resolved for them to play
