The Olympic Committee of the aggressor country decided to squeeze all the international officials to the maximum.
If the International Olympic Committee is serious about returning athletes from the aggressor country to the arena, then why not take advantage of this and remove all sanctions?
So they decided on the Russian Olympic Committee and they started twisting the arms of the IOC. The president of the organization, Stanislav Pozdnyakov, began to demand a complete removal of sanctions from his athletes.
According to him, Russians should not suffer from any restrictions on entering international competitions.
“Russians must participate under the same conditions as athletes from other countries. We do not accept additional conditions and criteria, especially those that contain some kind of political component that is absolutely unacceptable for in the Olympic movement.
Everyone who is now calling us to boycott the Olympics, regardless of the motive, should be clearly aware that such a demarche is a direct way to isolate all domestic sports for at least two Olympics cycles.
That means, the flag, the anthem, our athletes will not be able to participate in the most international competition for eight years. This is exactly what our opponents are trying to do. At the same time, there are no cases in history that the boycott had a positive effect on the development of sports in a country.
International sports federations are now consulting the IOC, based on which conditions and strategies will be developed, which the IOC will later publish. Today, the political side is unacceptable for the global Olympic movement.
The IOC continues to consult with IFs on Olympic qualifications. Each sport has a unique situation, so finding a universal strategy is quite difficult. The IOC has allocated at least a month for this,” Pozdnyakov was quoted as saying by Inside the games.
It will be remembered that earlier the NOC of Ukraine reported that if the Russians were admitted to the Olympics, our country could boycott the tournament.
