Former Russian tennis player Andrei Chesnokov was unhappy with the change to the Olympic motto “Faster”. Higher. Stronger,” and to that we add the word “Together.” His words are quoted Live Result.
“I look left, right, up and down, and I want to understand how to connect this phrase “together” with the Olympics, these three great words about the Olympics. Together we can bring Russian and Belarusian athletes to their knees and “own” them?
What does this word have to do with sports? This is a disgusting word in relation to sports and the Olympic Games in general, but that’s why the whole world applauded,” Chesnokov said.
At the end of February 2022, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) appealed to international sports federations, recommending that Russian and Belarusian athletes not be allowed to participate in any competitions.
To qualify for the Games, Russian athletes will have to sign updated conditions of participation that include a commitment to respect the Olympic Charter, including the “peaceful mission of the Olympic movement”, the IOC said.
Previously at OKR statedThat the Russians would have to condemn the SVO for the sake of the Olympics.
