It seems like FIFA make their own rules as they go depending on the country’s involved. It’s ok to take action against Russia but when Gaza was being bombed by Israel it was a different situation. (See below)
Egyptian football legend Mohammad AbuTrika was fined by FIFA for showing solidarity with Gaza during Israel's 2009 attack. Later, FIFA justified its decision by saying sport is not a place for politics.
Now, all in a sudden, mixing politics with sport is okay! Sheer hypocrisy 😡
