Athletistic/ Others. This year, the topic of the return of Russians to international competitions has become more often discussed. However, we are only talking about individual sports, as well as performances without flags or anthems. In this regard, many argue about whether Russian athletes should go to the Olympics. Olympic champion Tatyana Navka expressed her opinion.
– We absolutely have to go to the Olympic Games, even if our national symbols are prohibited. It is easy to say that in such conditions, it is impossible for those who have never practiced professional sport and who have not lived the dream of an Olympic medal to go there.
Of course, it is very sad that our flag is not raised and the anthem is not played – every athlete has dreamed of this since childhood. But to deprive an athlete of the opportunity to participate in the Olympic Games, you cannot take away a dream from him. If you have the opportunity to participate in the Olympics, you will definitely have to take this opportunity, – quotes Navka Sport24.
