Honored coach of the USSR in figure skating Tatyana Tarasova believes that she should not refuse to participate in the Olympic Games. Transmits words “Rating bookmakers”.
“I have a bad attitude towards the idea of completely rejecting the Olympics and slogans that we have to create our own. It’s all meaningless. Of course, our athletes now have to create the necessary competitions within the country, but these should not be called new Olympics. You can’t refuse the idea of participating in the Olympics. Participation in the games is the highest point in the career of any athlete. We have to wait, ”said Tarasova.
At the end of February 2022, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) issued a call to international sports federations and recommended that Russian and Belarusian athletes not be allowed to participate in any competitions.
At a meeting of the IOC executive committee on March 28, it was recommended that the Russians be allowed a neutral status if the athletes did not actively support the hostilities. Athletes representing law enforcement and armed forces will not be allowed to compete.
Previously on OKR said Latest information on the admission of Russians to the Paris Olympics.
