Athletistic/ Others. IOC President Thomas Bach has spoken out against the intervention of national governments in solving the problems of international sport.

“We saw how, at the Australian Open, a Ukrainian tennis player played against a Russian woman who played in a neutral status. We saw a Belarusian athlete who played in a neutral status, who managed to winning the tournament Why can’t it be in another sport?

We take human rights issues seriously and we have to deal with them. National governments should not decide who can participate in international sports competitions. This approach would be the end of all international tournaments,” Bach said.
