WHAT CAN DAMAGE THE REPUTATION OF CHESS?

Recently, FIDE has imposed new sanctions on Russia (see also the news in the ChessDotCom section "Chess Politics").

Note that these sanctions are imposed not on the Russian chess players but on the functionaries of the Chess Federation of Russia. 

Note also that the claim that these sanctions are "conditional" is misleading. In fact, these sanctions are absolute because it is known beforehand that the Chess Federation of Russia (CFR) cannot violate the laws of Russia.

Nothing can damage the FIDE's reputation or bring chess into disrepute more than the FIDE Ethics and Disciplinary Commission (EDC) itself

 

"... the CFR organizing chess events in illegally occupied parts of Ukraine."

After the Second World War, the Soviet authorities sanctioned Estonian chess grandmaster Paul Keres for participating in chess events organized by Nazi Germany.

I present only a few of my several questions here.

In 2014, in Ukraine, something like a domestic war started. Donetsk and Luhansk regions declared independence. Moreover, Russia occupied and annexed Crimea.

• Since 2014, when has Ukraine organized any chess events in these regions? 
• Did Ukraine organize any chess events in these regions after the Minsk agreements were made?

This is not a joke. 

If Ukraine is unable or unwilling to organize chess competitions in Crimea, and FIDE bans Russia from doing so, then who is supposed to organize chess events in Crimea, and what are FIDE's functions?
