One of the fundamental principles of the Red Cross and Red Crescent is Impartiality: "It makes no discrimination as to nationality, race, religious beliefs, class or political opinions" [1].

I could not find anything about impartiality neither at the OpenStreetMap Foundation Core principles and Mission Statement [2], nor at the Welcome section of the OSM website [3]. It is sad that one of our good colleagues feels singled out due to a political contrivance du jour, with which he has nothing to do. I think the principle of Impartiality should be included in the Core principles.

Hi everyone,

I'm very pleased some of us consider me the source of all evil that comes from Russia...
