Czech Prime Minister Petr Fiala spoke about the possible admission of Russian and Belarusian athletes to the 2024 Olympic Games.
The Games will be held in Paris and will run from July 26 to August 11, 2024.
Fiala stated that she could not even imagine that the Russians would attend the Games in Paris. “It doesn’t seem like a good idea to me for Russian athletes to participate in the Olympics in the current circumstances,” he said.
