The wrestler expressed admiration for his compatriot defending Ukraine from Russian invaders.
The Olympic champion in Greco-Roman wrestling and the people’s representative Zhan Beleniuk went to Gostomel, liberated from the Russian occupiers, where he met the Bellator champion Yaroslav Amosov.
“Yesterday in Gostomel, on the mutilated AN-225 Mriya, the only largest aircraft in the world, I met the pride of Ukrainian sports, the first and until now the only Ukrainian Bellator champion Yaroslav Amosov.
He himself was from Irpin, from the first days he protected his own city. A worthy example of a champion who understands the importance of being present at the most critical moments.
You know, today the strength of our country is definitely in the people who are united in one goal and one struggle – the struggle for our country and our future.
It’s in people who have the potential to be able to do the most unique things and show outstanding results, ”Beleniuk wrote in Instagramattached a photo with Amosov.
The athlete also published a photo of the destroyed Mriya, and noted that it was impossible to destroy the dream.
“As accurately said:“ You can destroy the plane, but you can’t destroy the Dream. We will win and build a bigger plane, ”Beleniuk wrote.
Earlier it was reported that Yaroslav Amosov had “rescued” his Bellator championship belt from his home in Irpen.
