IOC Bach President Russia-Belarus Players Calling Not to Participate in the Tournament Invasion of Ukraine
Regarding Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, IOC = President of the International Olympic Committee Bach issued a statement calling for the participation of Russian and Belarusian athletes in sporting events.
“The Russian invasion of Ukraine has shocked the world,” Bach said in a statement. We have called on sports organizations around the world not to allow Russian and Belarusian athletes to participate in competitions or in the form of a country name.
“I understand that the responsibility for the war lies with the government, not the athletes,” said Bach. “While Russian and Belarusian athletes can participate in the competition, Ukrainian athletes take chances through the war.” It’s not fair to be blamed. “
He argued that the Russian government and others insisted that “sports be politicized” in response to these measures, “it does not fall into the trap of cheesy debate.” “Anyone who violates the Olympic truce by military means cannot complain regarding the consequences.”
