Today, Turkish troops invaded Iraq.

It's a news from two months ago. Did they just tell you in Russia now?

Turkey attacked Iraq yesterday, April 17. Haven't you been told about it in Italy yet? 

But if you were sure that Turkey invaded Iraq two months ago, even before the start of Russia's military actions in Ukraine, and you did not react in any way, you were satisfied with everything, then this is definitely double standards. I think you are indifferent to both Kurds and Ukrainians. Let's not be hypocritical to each other.

 

Confirmed.

the Islamic fascist Erdogan took advantage of the fact that the eyes of the world are on Ukraine to attack the Kurds again.
With many thanks to Putin for distracting world public opinion.
The dictators pieces of shit understand each other well, I see.

Round 7 of the WCL 2022 has been announced in a separate item, as usual. All pairings have been announced as originally scheduled. I kindly ask those Russian teams that want to leave the WCL to indicate this in the comments of the Round 7 item:

Personally, I regret if any team leaves the league and I hope that eventually we can return to a situation in which teams from all countries in the world feel comfortable participating again. There should be no doubt that the war conducted by the Russian government is the main obstacle to returning to such a situation, not anything that happens here on chess-com.
