The journalist said he was disappointed by many athletes who themselves refused to participate in the Olympics.
“The Olympic Games will be widely broadcast across Russia and athletes who win medals will be celebrated. And those who do not go will regret it, but it will be too late,” Guberniev quotes Vprognoze.ru.
On June 23, Guberniev criticized the artistic gymnastics and swimming federations for their refusal to participate in the selection for the 2024 Olympics.
In December 2023, the IOC announced the admission of athletes from Russia and Belarus to the 2024 Olympic Games in individual neutral status, subject to a number of criteria. At the same time, Russian and Belarusian athletes will not be allowed to attend the opening ceremony of the Games and will not be mentioned in the medal table.
