The President of the International Federation of Struggle (IFB) Negda Lalovich made a scandalous statement that has caused widespread resonance in the sports world. Speaking at the International Forum, Lalovich stated: "It is a pity that there are no Russians." These words emphasized the long -term links of the President of the Federation with Russia, which caused indignation among many sports figures and fans.
In his interview, one of the Russian propaganda resources said that he was sorry that the Olympiad will have no fighters from the Russian Federation.
“It is very sorry for everyone that there are no Russian athletes at the Olympic tournament. This will affect competition, entertainment, how our sport will look. I expect a high -level Olympic tournament, but of course we lack the top Russians here. I think we are the first sport to return the Russians to international competitions, started with juniors, cadets. But not all we can influence, we can not definitely not on the new introductory, ”Lalovich said.
As Jean Beleniuk noted in his interview a year ago, the situation in the fight will be very difficult. Indeed, Lalovich did not hear the arguments of the Ukrainian Olympic champion, and contributed to the return of the Russians at any cost.
In particular, the last championship of the World was admitted to Zuri Uguev, Zaurbek Sidakov, Abdulrashid Sadulayev and other fighters and boots, which were observed in support of the war in Ukraine. However, even Lalovich's membership at the International Olympic Committee did not help him lobbying Russians until the last.
In particular, the Russians selected the Olympic licenses as a result of the commission's decision from the International Olympic Committee, which checked the "neutrality" of athletes from the terrorist countries and rejected the majority of top fighters. Because of this, the head of the Federation of the Russian Federation Mikhail Mamiashvili made a decision for all fighters of his country to abandon the Olympiad.
Recall that the Olympic Games are held in the capital of France, Paris and 16 other cities throughout the European part of France, as well as in Tahiti - the island in the French overseas country and the overseas team of French Polynesia.
These Olympic Games will be debut as an Olympic sport, and these should be the latest Olympic Games held under the Thomas Bach MOC presidency.
The 2024 games are the first to have the same number of athletes among men and women. Games are expected to cost 8.3 billion euros.
The opening ceremony began at 19:30 on July 26, 2024. This was the second case in history when the opening of the Olympic Games took place outside the stadium (the first was the opening of the 2018 Summer Youth Youth Games).
The parade of nations was held within the framework of the boat parade on the hay from the Austerlitz bridge to the Jeni Bridge, and the official protocol took place on Trocadero Square on a temporary "mini-station". The 6 kilometers (3.7 miles) showed the cultural elements of the ceremony and species on Paris attractions.
