russian biathlete Victoria Slivko stated that she would like to return to international competitions under a neutral status.
On Wednesday, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) said it would consider admitting neutral Russian and Belarusian athletes who do not actively support the IOC to world starts. Previously, in most sports, against the background of the situation in Ukraine, Russians were deprived of the opportunity to participate in international tournaments. IOC chief Thomas Bach has said athletes from Russia and Belarus could compete in the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris in a neutral status.
“Of course, I hope they let us in. It doesn’t matter how it goes: at least somehow, but the gist is there. I really hope. Hope doesn’t not die, I believe in the best, – the correspondent reports Slivko’s words.
