Olympic champion and traitor to Ukraine Tatyana Navka called the criteria for the admission of Russian athletes to international competitions an attempt by Western countries to “wipe Russia off the ground.” In this case, athletes should agree to compete in a neutral status.
A native of Dnepropetrovsk (now Dnipro) herself stated this in a commentary to the propaganda news agency TASS. She outraged the decision of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) to recommend that all Russians in team sports, as well as athletes associated with the army and law enforcement agencies, not be allowed to compete.
“On the one hand, I am very happy for those athletes who can get the opportunity to participate in the Olympic Games. If this happens, we will cheer for all of our people at the Olympics and wish them all victory. On the other hand, this whole story, when politicians and officials interfering in such a sincere, honest and emotional sphere as sports, breaking the fate of athletes who invest their lives and health in sports, is simply wrong. I am sure life will put everything in its place. This once again proves the desire of the West to erase Russia from the earth” – said the traitor of Ukraine.
Recall that after the announcement of the IOC decision, the president of the organization, Thomas Bach, added that these recommendations do not apply to the participation of Russians and Belarusians in the 2024 and 2026 Olympic Games. The solution to this issue will be discussed later.
As GLOBAL HAPPENINGS reported, the German Foreign Ministry called the new decision of the IOC regarding the conditional admission of Russians to international competitions a slap in the face to the Ukrainian people.
