That Russian tennis player who wrote No To War

[DemocratSinceBirth]

He should be offered citizenship in the West

[spooky3]

1. He lives in Moscow so I doubt he will leave unless the goons start leaning on him.

Tennis players at that level typically move to Monte Carlo or Dubai for various advantages. So I believe Rublev must love his home a lot.

Medvedev (new world #1 men's tennis, also Russian) also commented on his wish for peace and how Rublev recently won a doubles title while playing with a Ukrainian player.

2. Won't he be targeted now by Putin's goons?

[spooky3]

5. Could be. But he is very well known and prominent in tennis (and apparently well-liked)

so they may leave him alone and go after more vulnerable targets.

[orwell]

3. Stay away from windows...

...just sayin'

4. The Putin story is that this is all Ukraine's fault so "No To War" could be spun as a condemnation

of Ukraine... If the window-thrower-outers are even listening, that is.

6. Hey everyone, Rublev plays in a tournament final tomorrow morning.
