Athletistic/ Others. Olympic ice dancing champion Tatiana Navka has responded to the IOC’s call for national Olympic committees not to participate in alternative competitions in Russia.

“They are trying to intimidate everyone and claim that they can monopolize the sport. World events are now pushing the IOC to make such recommendations, which leads to even greater misunderstandings. They are jealous of these ideas, so they are trying to intimidate,” Navka told Sport24.

We learned earlier that at the end of October, the IOC had sent letters to the NOCs inviting them to refuse to participate in the Friendship Games.
