She believes the critical moment has come, and if a final decision is made to exclude Russian athletes, it could lead to the complete destruction of the Olympic movement. She argues that no more harm can be done to international sport.
In 2022, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) temporarily suspended Russian and Belarusian athletes from participating in international competitions.

The Organizing Committee for the 2024 Olympics has said that the final decision on the possible admission of Russian athletes will be made no earlier than September 2023.
