    I feel really bad for these scientists. The decision is perfectly reasonable, but being punished for something completely out of your control must suck.

      Not exactly “completely out of your control”, I’d say.

        I’m not sure they can really vote Putin out of power.

        And as for moving country, well I’m sure that’s easy for some, but those with family and commitments I can’t imagine it’s easy
