The European politician said that there are many sports disciplines in which Russians dominate, which means their absence will affect competition. “You ban them from participating in the competition, and the winner is someone who would otherwise have a minimal probability of winning, then what is the value of this gold medal?” he asked.
On December 8, the International Olympic Committee announced the admission of Russians and Belarusians to the 2024 Olympics. They will be able to take part in the tournament as individual neutral athletes. At the same time, athletes who support a special operation in Ukraine and have connections with the armed forces or security agencies of Russia and Belarus will not get to Paris. Representatives of team sports will also miss the tournament.
The Summer Olympic Games will be held in Paris from July 26 to August 11, 2024.
