The question of the participation of Russian athletes at the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro is still hanging in the air. The international Olympic Committee still has not made a final decision about the participation of the team of the Russian national team at the Olympic games. It is reported that all points over “i” will be placed tomorrow, July 24.
In anticipation of this important for our country events are one of the leading sports powers – Spain – decided to support the Russian athletes and expressed his point of view about the problem.
According to the head of the National Olympic Committee for Spain, Alejandro Blanco, athletes, passed doping tests, should be allowed to compete.
“If the athlete passed ten tests, none of them revealed “doping”, then we rule him out because he is Russian? Let’s use common sense” — called Blanco.
Finally, among international personalities, there are people that take a sober look at the situation. After all, whoever heard of because of a few guilty (and not the fact) of athletes from the Olympics was suspended the whole country? At least it is stupid and unfair.
No athlete should not have to pay their reputation, their prestige for other people’s mistakes. And that’s a fact.
As for the “lesson” that we want so badly to teach Western politics and leaders, I think our country can do without such teachings, which will put the reputation of our country in the sports arena.
This cannot be allowed. That is why Moscow is now actively fighting for our rights and defend the interests of Russian national team. We cannot allow the sport has become politicized and that all conflicts were solved in the sports arena. I hope that the truth will be ours, and the common sense of the leaders of the International Olympic Committee still Wake up!
