Earlier, the President of the All-Russian Swimming Federation, Vladimir Salnikov, said that such statements would become a prerequisite for the admission of domestic swimmers to international competitions.
“I recently re-read these recommendations. You can count on your fingers how many athletes meet these requirements. If necessary, everyone will go, but I only speak for myself: if I have to sign such a declaration, I will refuse. I don’t want to accept their conditions. Even if we are obliged to compete under a neutral flag, which we have already done successfully, it is clear that we can achieve this. However, this whole thing has become a habit. There was a time when they thought that we had to go through this, but their impudence continues to grow, ”Rylov noted in an interview with Match TV.
