It's really not, a typical aspect of a country at war is removal from public participation.
Yeah, one that they "forgot" to do to Russia.
Oh yeah, expelling those who will then be drafted into the army back at their home country is a brilliant move.
Look, I don't make the rules man you can be mad and maybe should be just not at me and not really at Ukraine or cern.
True, but having one idiot do massively stupid things doesn't mean the other side doing less stupid things somehow stopped being stupid.
Cern is uninvolved, they just don't want the conflict to be an issue on property. Ukraine was invaded, Russia invaded so they booted Russia and not Ukraine.
It makes total sense.
Who is saying they're being deported to Russia? Countries have been accepting asylum seekers for literal centuries especially highly talented ones.
If anything they're helping to push the talented Russians to jump ship just like they did in the 80s and 90s.
These aren't 2.0gpa party school kids. These are generally PhD or PhD students who would have exactly zero difficulty leaving to the US because the US will simply give them what they want to brain drain Russia. We spent literally hundreds of millions of dollars doing this from 1946-now. The theory being farmers don't build great missiles and scientists and engineers are in shorter supply.
Firing Russians who are already abroad doesn't push Russians OUT of Russia. WTF.
