President of the Russian Ski Federation (RFSR) Elena Vyalbe told that Russian athletes should not have agreed to participate in the 2024 Olympics in the first place.
Friday, the Russian Zakhar Petrov finished fourth in the men’s 1,000m canoe singles final at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris. Petrov was the last Russian to compete in Paris. Tennis players won the only medal Mirra Andreeva And Diane Schneider who finished second in doubles.
— Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately, I don’t follow the Olympics at all, I don’t even know which Russians played there. I wasn’t interested.
— Tennis players, canoeists, cyclists, a swimmer and a trampoline athlete performed. They won only one medal in tennis – silver. How can such a performance be assessed?
— It’s not even about the result, but about the fact that initially it was impossible to go to the Paris Olympics. I don’t clearly understand what a neutral athlete means.
— Will the attitude towards Russians who have obtained neutral status change?
“The athletes themselves made this decision, they are all free people. They did nothing wrong to our country, but I do not agree with their opinion,” Vyalbe told .
The Olympic Games in the French capital will end on August 11. 15 Russian athletes competed in neutral status.
