Athletistic/OI-2024. Russian high jump champion Maria Kochanova, who meets the Olympic standards, shared in an interview with SE her opinion on comparing the Olympic Games and international competitions held in Russia.
“The BRICS Games cannot be compared to the Olympics in any way, as they are completely different competitions in their format. The Olympics are a more official event, while the BRICS Games are a commercial event, albeit a major one for our country. Therefore, one cannot be considered an alternative to the other,” Kochanova noted.
