It's truly tragic how the families will be treated of those players who might not return to the Islamic republic. I wonder if they're going to be forced to do some sort of bs explanation for how their gesture was supporting their supreme leader.

They're starting to run out of time of a change in face to at least keep a bit of Russia's international relations and oligarch economy alive. Instead it seems like Russia is cutting itself off completely from Europe and becoming a CCP client state.

That was an incredibly brave protest it seems considering how brutally the regime seems to be cracking down on it. I just hope those families don't get punished for the incredibly brave actions but authoritarian regimes seem to love locking up and torturing them.
