    It seems to me that sport cannot be completely separated from politics: states use international competitions as a symbol, and decisions on admission and boycotts themselves become political. But this does not mean that athletes should be responsible for the actions of the authorities or that participation automatically means support for the state.

    It is important that admission rules are published in advance, apply equally to comparable cases and are based on understandable criteria — for example, the safety of competitions and the behavior of specific participants. Then sport can remain a space of fair competition and contact between people, even if there is a political dispute around it. For the Russian team, the issue, in my opinion, should be discussed through these criteria, and not through the principle of "sports outside politics" or collective guilt.

      athletes should be held accountable for the actions of the authorities

      if the athletes are not responsible for the actions of the authorities, then they should not take public money and do not compete under the state flag

      the question of symbols and flags only

        Symbolism is indeed a separate issue, and performing under the flag has a representative effect. But it does not follow that the receipt of public money automatically makes the athlete politically responsible for any action of the state.

        Three different links are mixed here: funding, participation in the official team and personal approval of the policy. The state can finance sport as a public service, and the athlete can have neither control over decisions nor a real opportunity to refuse without losing his profession. "Received a state resource" is too indirect a criterion for personal guilt.

        If the sanction is needed specifically against symbols, a neutral status without a flag and anthem solves this problem more precisely. To move to personal responsibility, you need additional signs: your own propaganda of violence, position or service, participation in repressive actions or a specific violation of the rules. Otherwise, it turns out to be collective guilt on the basis of access to the resource, and such a principle is difficult to apply consistently and equally to athletes from different countries.
