The World Championships take place in Belgrade from September 16 to 24. The Russians act in a neutral position. The tournament is a qualifier for the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris. On Monday, Akhmed Usmanov won the first gold medal for Russians at this tournament – in the weight category up to 79 kg.
— Isn’t it a shame that Akhmed Usmanov’s victory took place without a flag or anthem?
— The whole world knows where Ahmed comes from. It’s deserved that we were able to participate in the World Championships. I hope we will also participate in the Olympic Games. The World Wrestling Championship without us is not the World Championship. Our athletes honor this championship in Serbia. The whole world knows where our wrestlers come from, they even know what cities they come from, what streets they live on,” Magomedov told .
