denys, very briefly at the end, do you remember the history of the red cross and the international committee which , in the opinion of many, including ukrainians, did not do enough to ensure the observance of human rights and generally ensure the safety of our prisoners of war, a lot of criticism was directed at the international committee of the red cross the cross that appeals with huge money but for some reason will receive from real steps that could improve the situation for people for humanitarian very often the situation or is it possible with a similar campaign to attack the international olympic committee if they do not make a decision that every adequate person in the world is asking for, now you know here we can only unite and demand from the international olympic committee to make an adequate decision, no other way we can't affect it. unfortunately, there are no tools to apply to it . unfortunately, we can't use any tools other than to demand and turn to the new voodoo, of course, only they themselves can. multiply yourself by zero with your decision to actually admit russians and
