Olympic Team All-Around Gymnast Champion Denis Ablyazin was satisfied with the statement of the American Olympic Committee on the desire to see Russian athletes at the 2024 Olympics in Paris.
Previously, the United States Olympic and Paralympic Committee (USOPC) supported the idea of allowing Russian and Belarusian athletes to participate in the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, but in a neutral status.
It’s good that they said it. Of course, we will be very happy to participate in the Paris Olympics. Of course, we are preparing and training. We believe and hope that we will be admitted. It’s a good sign that people in the United States and other countries are trying to bring Russia back to international competition, Ablyazin told .
On February 28, the Executive Committee of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) recommended that international federations prevent Russians and Belarusians from participating in competitions due to events in Ukraine. Many federations have followed these recommendations. On December 9, most participants at the Olympic summit agreed on the need to keep sanctions against Russian and Belarusian sports in place.
