South African runner Lucky Moleyan Letlogonolo said Russian athletes should be allowed to participate in international competitions.
Letlogonolo finished second in the 200m at the BRICS Games in Kazan on Sunday. Russian Konstantin Krylov won.
— The BRICS Games are incredible competitions, a great atmosphere! Perhaps there could have been more people in the stands, but overall everything went well. I really liked the city. They say that Kazan is the sports capital of Russia, and I agree with that. This stadium has a magnificent view!
— What can you say about the exclusion of Russian athletes from the Paris Olympic Games?
— Russian athletes should be allowed to participate in international competitions. And even those who have already been banned before. People deserve a second chance, that’s my opinion”, reports the correspondent Letlogonolo’s words.
The BRICS Games in the capital of Tatarstan will end on June 23.
