__________________ 9 countries, including Ukraine, Australia, Finland, Japan, Denmark, Iceland, Great Britain, Poland, Sweden, declared a diplomatic boycott of the World Championship in Russia. The reasons for this were the Russian Federation's invasion of Ukraine and Syria, the poisoning of Russian ex-intelligence agent Sergey Skripal in Britain, the starvation of Ukrainian political prisoners, including the director Oleg Sentsov, and the systematic violation of human rights in the Russian Federation.

Unlimited hunger strike Sentsov announced May 14, 2018. His main demand is the release of more than 60 Ukrainian political prisoners who are behind bars in Russia. This requirement of the director was supported by the US State Department, the EU, the Canadian Parliament and.

In 2015, a Russian court illegally sentenced Sentsov to 20 years in a strict-security colony. The actions in support of the director were held all over the world, including in Russia.
