Athletistic / Others. Russian Olympic Committee (ROC) President Stanislav Pozdnyakov has commented on reports that Russia and Belarus will not receive an invitation to the 2024 Olympics along with the rest of the countries.

“The International Olympic Committee initially ruled out the possibility of inviting the ROC and the NOC of Belarus to the Games, while in its recommendations in March it essentially deprived the citizens of our countries of the right to nationality in sport. Therefore, it would be extremely strange if such an invitation occurred.

Trusova will hold master classes in China, the cost of participation will be more than 200,000 rubles

In any case, it would be impossible to accept it, because the conditions and criteria put forward by Russian and Belarusian athletes are illegitimate, discriminatory, contrary to the spirit and the letter of Russian and international legislation.

At the same time, all the principles of fair sports selection for the Olympic Games are completely violated, and I am convinced that it is a conscious approach which indicates that the Olympic movement is sinking more and more into the reliance on political influence.

Today’s news is a logical continuation of the IOC’s current policy to neutralize our athletes. In fact, nothing new has been announced. Moreover, there is no answer to the question – on what legal basis are NOCs not invited, who are in no way affected in their rights, are not suspended and are not subject to any restrictions . Prank in action,” Pozdnyakov wrote on his Telegram channel.
