Athletistic / Others. Olympic biathlon champion Svetlana Ishmuratova spoke about the words of the head of the Russian Olympic Committee (ROC) Stanislav Pozdnyakov. Earlier, Pozdnyakov said that the organization has not yet developed a single position on the participation of Russian athletes in the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris (France). At the same time, Pozdniakov had an extremely negative view of the conditions imposed by the IOC for the admission of Russians to competitions.

“I support the position of Stanislav Pozdnyakov, the position of the ROC. This is absolutely correct. After all, the guys who kneel down and agree to go to the Olympics with a neutral status look like they have practically abandoned their country. Despite the fact that everyone will know his last name, they will know that he is Russian, but anyway, he will not represent Russia, he will only represent himself.

I don’t want to call these people traitors, that would seem too loud and pretentious, but supporting them in this matter would be a mistake,” Match TV quotes Ishmuratova.
