Medvedev ....

"Daniil Medvedev and other Russian and Belarusian tennis players face being banned from Wimbledon unless they publicly denounce the Ukraine invasion, the Government has confirmed"

Blimey - that's all a bit much isn't it? Why should he do that? What about condemning child poverty and drug dealing in Colombia? Or some African dictator type? It's not his war for goodness sake.
This sort of thing is not going to end well.
