2012 Olympic silver medalist in diving Evgeny Kuznetsov said he would not be surprised if problems persisting with admitting Russians to the 2028 Olympics.
Russian divers will miss the Paris Olympics in 2024. None of the athletes are registered for the last qualifying competition – February’s World Aquatics Championships in Doha.
– Yes, it was clear for a long time, everyone was ready for such a turn of events. The global community has lost the lion’s share of fair competition! This is just an inconvenience for them! We will prepare for the competitions that will take place here.
— Are you preparing for the next Olympic Games?
– She will be in America. I suspect something, the situation will be similar,” Kuznetsov told .
The FINA World Championships will take place in Doha from February 2 to 18. The 2024 Olympic Games will be held in Paris from July 26 to August 11.
As it became known earlier, Russian divers can only participate in international competitions in neutral status if they accept the conditions proposed by the International Swimming Federation (World Aquatics).
