Should Russia be allowed to take part in the Paralympics?

NO!

The right decision; better late than never.

Definitely NO

NO!!!!

Thank goodness the powers that be have been dragged reluctantly into making the right decision at the last minute and Russia will now not take part

NO, definitely not.

Definitely not! Unless it's shooting and the target is Putin!!!

No!

No and I'm glad they finally made that decision. Putin causing pain and suffering on innocent people, causing injuries that will affect these poor people for maybe the rest of their lives. He's scum.

No! And they shouldn’t be allowed to compete in Wimbledon either. Heard on the news this morning that Russians will be allowed to compete at Wimbledon. Britain and the Wimbledon tennis association should be ashamed of itself.

If the other players say they will not compete against Russian or Belarusian opponents (as has happened with the Paralympics) then Wimbledon would reconsider. In light of the climbdown by the Paralympic committee there's still time for pressure to be exerted.

No

No.

It might help if the Russian people were made aware of the ban, but I doubt they would be allowed to know of it.

NO! and anything to do with Russia, or Belarius. or even China

should be banned/ostracised... and our Parliament, cos the Opposition parties are also there..... are not sanctioning enough, and are much too complacent,
but then.....

No.

Absolutely not. The world has to stand in solidarity with Ukraine.

No no no they should be banned from every sport until the message get to the whole of the Russian people how bad Putin is

I tend to agree - but I do wonder if by isolating all Russians, they will never understand the truth of what is going on because of State brainwashing. If the athletes had been allowed to attend, maybe they might have had an eye-opener or two.

I hope formula one stop the Russian drivers and the Russian sponsors teams from competing and stop dithering about

NO! ....next question?

No. Think of the other athletes. It would cause trouble. Some probably have relatives in the country Russia has invaded. It’s obvious that the general Russian population and soldiers have no idea what their country is really doing. Any and every possible action to show normal Russians that the World disapprove of their countries government actions is the right thing to do
Every disabled sportsman and woman will regret that their Russian counterparts are unable to compete in the Games.

NO!

Gwenisgreat1. Wins my prize for the best answer so far!!!!! Well done girl.

As far as I’m concerned Russia should be ostracised by the whole world. Both sporting and socially, monetary and anything else we can do to cause havoc for them.How dare they cause a war in another country without cause. Only their own paranoia, a Nazi leader and his henchmen causing destruction and death, for what, a power trip by a mad man. Am ashamed of our Government for lack of leadership, lack of empathy, and downright idiocy not bringing in sanctions straight away. Disgusted. Keir Starmer not much better, seemingly quite happy to have a war with Russia, which bringing in a no fly zone would do.
