Athletistic/ Boxing. Russian fighter Alexander Shlemenko spoke about a Dagestan native, Muhammad Mokaev, who represents Great Britain in the UFC, and athletes who can change their nationality.

“There can be completely different situations in life. Each of us has the right to think for ourselves. I understand that for someone gold in the Olympics is a dream. Now for many people “Between us, the moment when you can become free. Everyone chooses. Citizenship can change everyone, but it’s important to remember the consequences that can be in the current situation,” Shlemenko said.

Mokaev and his father ended up in a refugee center in Liverpool in 2012, from where they later moved to Wigan.
