Pozdnyakov accused the IOC of double standards.
Former Minister of Sports Kolobkov spoke about the resounding words of the mayor of Paris about Russian athletes
“In recent years, the leadership of the International Olympic Movement has skillfully mastered the art of proving that black is white and shifting its own responsibility to everyone for solving tailor-made tasks. Like excluding everything Russian from international sport that ‘he usurped, for example.
The fact that Lausanne is now a political actor and that sport is entirely political has finally been officially announced. One less myth.
Today’s Olympic boycott concerns the removal of athletes on the basis of their nationality by the IOC. Who, at the same time, “with titanic efforts and masterfully” managed to “resolve the problems and dilemmas” related to Paris 2024 with all parties involved,” Pozdniakov wrote on his Telegram channel.”
