With the ongoing conflict engaged in Ukraine, it appears a group of Russian players got together on the Telegram app and discussed issuing a joint statement in regards to the Russian Invasion. Unfortunately for those players though, apparently they couldn't agree on the details.
Clearly there is no information provided about this interaction as to why they couldn't come to a consensus, but the disbanding of the group chat clearly shows at least some discord between the group. With new Russian laws prohibiting anyone from speaking out or providing "Fake News" about the conflict it's clear to see that some players are in a difficult position.
Just as an example, New York Rangers Artemi Panarin had damaging information released about him that ended up being deemed "propaganda" after he openly spoke out about Russian President, Vladimir Putin.
