What usually happens when the UK, wants to express its annoyance with a state too big to rattle any sabres at (quite often Russia)? The spat will play out in the safe but very public arena of the arts. So, Great Britain's annoyance with Russia's apparent invasion of Ukraine has a pretty high probability of bringing with it the cancellation of some arts events. That'll upset Putin. Well, it might rile someone over there, and then they will probably respond in kind. All of which means that the vaunted UK-Russia year of culture (on which we're in the early stages, incidentally) might be seriously diminished.
