EA Games, the world wide known publisher already removed russian and belorussian teams from FIFA and NHL. It shows a great understanding of the current political situation and a full-scale war that's going on in Ukraine and started by Russia.

However, Battlefield 2042, the main military shooter from the publisher still has Russia as a side to play on in the multiplayer matches. Russia is mentioned as one side of a conflict, in dialogues, menus, on the logos of the military vehicles, and aviation.

More of it. In a recent Season One trailer, the authors made a huge accent on the logo "BBC России", which basically a logo of russian's Air Force.

We, signed, think it's unacceptable to portrait russia in a military game after it full-scaled war. While russian soldiers commit horrible war crimes: raping, killing innocent men and women hands tied, stealing everything from homes, bombing hospitals, maternity houses, and kindergartens in Ukraine - we have to exclude russia from every aspect of the civilized world. And especially from the media, where you can play as russian soldiers, who currently commit crimes.

Imagine that you can see a movie of nazi soldiers or play video games, while they rape your country, kill your friends, and raping children.

It is not acceptable in the modern world. Democracy and democratic values should prevail. 

We demand change all russia reference for other countries: Turkey, India, Pakistan, Iran, china - it's all possible to do. You can even change for Ukraine. Why not.

But keeping russia in the game is not acceptable and not right.
