Some additional info: All those being excluded have received the message with understanding, according to Norway Chess. They will not take into concideration whether the participants have voiced criticism of the war or not, as Norway Chess cannot judge whether any individual is "sufficiently against" the war nor put anyone in a situation where they feel they have to take stance in the conflict (due to the participants' own safety) Source: https://www.tv2.no/a/14615113/ https://www.tv2.no/a/14615113/
