RUSSIA AND BELARUS NOT SUSPENDED?
The ICCF Statutes webpage provides a new Statute, valid from 9th May 2022.
www.iccf.com/message?message=449
Article 17 contains a new sentence now:
"The Executive Board is empowered by Congress to propose suspension or dismissal of member federations for non-financial reasons."
Thus, the ICCF has also made a decision to suspend Russia and Belarus.
Thus, it seems that the ICCF Congress has calculated as follows:
34/(34 + 13) = 34/47 = 0.72 = 72%
It means that the "abstained" 13 voters have not been taken into account.
But who voted how, who remained neutral, who was missing, etc.?
Article 12 says the following:
"Amendments to the statutes require a vote of the general assembly, called the Congress, and a majority of two thirds of the members present or represented."
However, that Extraordinary Congress was online.
Finally, the downloadable table has other pages providing more detailed information. Thus, there is information that Estonian representative Jüri Kuusik did not "attend" the online congress.
The meanings of the terms "present", "represented", "attended", and "abstained" have remained unclear, which makes the manipulations possible.
Clarity is missing around that issue and on the ICCF homepage.

Unvaccinated correspondence chessplayers
I have read that in Latvia, unvaccinated deputies of the parliament are banned from voting and giving speeches — even from far, digitally. Estonian newspapers wrote about this.
I have also read that in some parts of Australia, the unvaccinated deputies of some local offices cannot vote even from far. I do not know what to believe.
However, online voting cannot spread the virus.
Therefore, a question arises concerning correspondence chess. Imagine that someone demands that unvaccinated chess players be banned from playing online chess because online chess cannot infect anyone with the virus.
I do not understand what the logic of all of this is.

RUSSIA AND BELARUS NOT SUSPENDED?
Few questions more, just curious:
1- Would you like your country (Estonia, I guess) to rejoin Russia's federation (under Putin's regime)?
2- What would you think if russian speaking people in Estonia wanted to cut it in two parts, to make an independant republic that will obviously join Russia's federation?
3- What would you think if Russia's argument to make war to Estonia (destroying many cities) was that there are nazis in Estonia who fight separatists? (I guess that there are nazis in Estonia just like everywhere... and obviously they would be quite happy to fight against separatists)
