President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy continued the marathon of honesty, which should return international sports structures to real Olympic integrity.

Zelensky addressed a letter to the presidents of leading international sports federations. The call is simple and fair: to decide on the decision of the International Olympic Committee, which, unfortunately, wants to open the sport to the propaganda influence of a terrorist state.

The President stated this in an evening video message on January 28..



" And it is also a matter of time before the Kremlin starts using the existing unprincipled "

Volodymyr Zelensky stressed that one cannot ignore that every day Russia continues its terror.

Recall, the National Olympic Committee (NOC) of Ukraine will consider a possible boycott of the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.

The reason was the likely return of Russian and Belarusian athletes to the international arena before the end of the war waged by the Russian Federation against Ukraine. The NOC will discuss the boycott of the Olympics on February 3 during the extraordinary general assembly.
