Two-time Olympic biathlon champion Dmitry Vasilyev believes that European states will ask Russia to participate in the World Championships and Olympic Games when they begin to freeze from lack of fuel.
“Do we have a slim chance? Most likely. However, something else is possible: When all of Europe begins to freeze, and the citizens of European states will no longer be satisfied with this situation, they will force their governments to negotiate with Russia. And in this case, they will ask us to participate in the Olympics and World Championships. Vasiliev quotes that do not freeze anymore and the population of these countries “may not revolt against their rulers.” “Pair TV”.
Recall that Craig Reedy, member of the International Olympic Committee (IOC), said that the chances of Russian athletes participating in the 2024 Olympics are very slim.
Recall that at the end of February, the IOC addressed international sports federations and advised not to allow Russian and Belarusian athletes to participate in any competitions.
Formerly Vyacheslav Fetisov urged Russian officials to sit under the IOC building and demand explanations.
