The EGF meeting has decided that (Belo)russian players may participate
in European tournaments under neutral flag.

This gives rise to follow-up questions:

1) In tournaments without flags, does "neutral flag" mean "neutral
country in pairing programs, pairings and results?

2) Is it correct that (Belo)russian players, if asked, need to prove
the less important non-doping but never need to prove / declare the
more important non-participation in / non-proliferation of offensive
war?

3) What about opponents of (Belo)russian players? May an opponent
refuse to play due to his conscience? Before the start of a game, may
an opponent demand a declaration of a (Belo)russian player about
non-participation in / non-proliferation of offensive war? Would such
an opponent receive a penalty for either action and what penalty?

4) Should players who do not want to play against any or some
particular (Belo)russian players (such as those not declaring
non-participation in / non-proliferation of offensive war) not attend
tournaments at all?
