Athletistic/ Others. Russian swimmer Yevgeny Rylov finds it strange to explain the withdrawal of Russian athletes from international tournaments out of concern for their safety.
“If they’re so worried about our safety, then I think Russia is capable of creating a structure that will protect us. My opinion: they just found a reason to hide behind it and think they’re getting away with it. are drawn. “It’s either an act of hypocrisy, or something more. The courts? Judging by what’s going on, I suspect the appeals are unnecessary. The verdict will definitely not be in our favour,” said Rylov.
Evgeny, along with other Russian swimmers, was suspended from participating in all international swimming competitions. Thus, swimmers from Russia did not take part in the FINA World Championships 2022, which took place in Budapest from June 17 to July 3. The 2022 World Short Course Swimming Championships, which were scheduled to be held in Kazan from December 17-22, have been moved to Melbourne, Australia, and will take place from December 13-18.
