I think when they are competing as a group as a country, it is perfectly fine to exclude Russia as it brings glory and national pride to see the flag and hear their anthem play. However, I don't believe punitive measures against individuals is necessary, helpful, and likely would be pretty counterproductive by alienating them on a personal level.
