“I doubt that Russian athletes will be able to go to Paris. I think that not only will they be refused participation, but also, when they announce the admitted athletes, all countries will start boycotting, which could put Macron in a difficult position. I think he simply will not allow this. Maybe he will somehow try to soften the situation with these countries, but there will definitely be a resistance, and it will be widely debated. I’m sure, we can see how it provokes an emotional response in people, even if only one of our athletes goes there.
You can save this plot until the last moment so they can understand it. However, I think that most likely, if we do not agree before a certain point, it is unlikely that our athletes will be allowed in,” Zhurova told TASS.
