23-year-old Ukrainian skeletonist Vladislav Geraskevich spoke about his attitude towards Russian athletes and residents of the Russian Federation in general.

The athlete admitted that he had previously communicated with representatives of Russia at competitions, but since the beginning of the full-scale invasion of the Russian Federation into Ukrainian territories, he stopped doing this..

With the start of a full-scale war, of course, there will be no communication with the Russians. Not a single skeletonist wrote me at least \? " Some bobsledders even threatened, wished that something would fall on the house.. They are just savages who should be isolated. Therefore, we are working on the isolation of Russian and Belarusian athletes.

These are savages who should be isolated from normal society.. They should stay somewhere in Russia, preferably closer to Siberia, and live somewhere in caves - because they are savages. These are not people.

We are reaching for a civilized society, we must act in the same way - just isolate them politically and in all areas, so that they simply do not exist.
