The 2022 Olympic champion Natalya Nepryaeva appealed to people who left negative comments about her on social networks.
“What’s tearing you apart? Is there so much shit in your life that it really explodes? You have to be more friendly to people,” Nepryaeva wrote.
Recall that the International Ski Federation (FIS) decided to exclude Russian and Belarusian athletes from international competitions until the end of last season, and then extended the sanctions. The Russians missed the final stages of the 2021/22 World Cup. Also, Russian skiers are not taking part in the new season 2022/23, but they are focusing on local starts.
At the end of January, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) considered the return of the Russians as neutral athletes.
Former Swedish skier William Poroma she made a jokethat because of their dominance in international competitions, Norwegian skiers should be suspended, as was done to Russian athletes.
