Ukraine’s first racket once again called for the complete disqualification of tennis players from the aggressor country.
Elina Svitolina once again called for the total disqualification of Russian sports because of the war unleashed by the Putin regime.
In an interview with Tribuna, he also spoke about why he filed a request with the WTA for the removal of Russian and Belarusian tennis players.
“When there is a genocide of Ukrainians, and they represent their countries, we need to know if they support such actions.
In fact, according to statistics, 80% of Russians – perhaps more – support such actions of their state. If this is true, why are they with us, with our colleagues?
It is important to us that no one really dies in our country with us. I want to do everything to the maximum. But the WTA company knows, they keep looking for excuses. So we will fight to the end, we are ready for it, “Svitolina said.
