Olympic high jump champion Maria Lasitskene said she plans to be fit for the Games in Paris, despite comments by World Athletics Association (World Athletics) President Sebastian Coe about the unlikely participation of Russian athletes in the Olympics.
On Thursday, Coe said he did not believe in the participation of Russian and Belarusian athletes in the Olympics. He noted that the World Athletics board is unlikely to reconsider its position regarding the admission of athletes from these countries.
How were Kou’s words received?
– Expected words. My plans haven’t changed: I want to be in good shape for the Paris Olympics.
– Is your cap with the inscription “Friendship, love, peace” a message? If yes which ?
— Cool cap, expresses the main feelings and emotions that should be in every person. There was also a variant of Lucky Loser, – the correspondent reports Lasitskene’s words.
The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has not yet taken a final decision on the possible admission of athletes from Russia and Belarus to the Olympic Games in the French capital.
