Athletistic / Olympic Games. Olympic champion Russian gymnast Margarita Mamun appreciated the remarks of the President of the All-Russian Rhythmic Gymnastics Federation (VFKhG) Irina Viner on the humiliation of the trip of Russian athletes to the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris (France) in neutral status. Wiener said these athletes represent a “homeless team.”

“For me, the most important thing is respect. I grew up in such a family, I trained in such conditions for most of my sports career, so it is very painful for me to listen all these statements about the homeless it seems to me that it is impossible,” Mamun said in a video on the YouTube channel “Vitya Kravchenko”.

On December 8, 2023, the IOC decided to allow athletes from Russia and Belarus to participate in the 2024 Summer Olympics with individual neutral status and subject to a number of conditions. It should be noted that athletes from Russia and Belarus can participate in the Paris Games only in individual disciplines, while team sports competitions will be held without the participation of these countries.

The 2024 Olympic Games will be held in the French capital from July 26 to August 11, 2024.

Margarita Mamun is the Olympic champion of the 2016 Games in Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) in the individual all-around competition. She is also a seven-time world champion. She is married to Alexander Sukhorukov, Russian swimmer, silver medalist at the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing (China).
