and the charter of the united nations organization, the russian olympic committeenue contacts with colleagues from the eyes in order to obtain objective information about the destructiveness of discriminatory measures that destroy the humanitarian and unifying mission of sports, given the fact that at the moment the executive committee could have postponed the decision on the participation of our athletes in the olympic games. we will monitor the actions of international guys in federation participation in competitions please question communication is not very stable. we had footage from the russian olympic committee from a briefing by roc president stanislav pozdnyakov. while on other topics, supporters of the schismatic orthodox church of ukraine seized the last church of the canonical ukrainian orthodox church in ivano-frankivsk, as reported by the ukrainian orthodox church, the raiders entered through the side doors, opened the central ones and pushed the parishioners out from the police stairs. at the same time, she did not interfere, but in the chernivtsi buk

us more tatiana good morning , the russians are expected to perform in a neutral status, but there are a huge number of nuances. so the international olympic committee recommended, uh, the return competitions of russians and belarusians to international sports federations about their the decision in could have been announced after the executive committee of the climbing organization. true, each athlete must fit a whole range, the criterion for returning the russians and belarusians is assumed to be in a neutral status without a flag. anthem athletes should not be related to law enforcement agencies, including the cska club , and we are talking only about individual sports and disciplines in team competitions. the removal of the russians remains in force. also, special sports structures will ensure that the athlete does not express active support operations in ukraine, the issue of admitting russians to the olympics for 24 years in paris was not raised yesterday, as long as we are talking only about international competitions. this criterion lays the foundation for the internal conflict in russian sports and has the direct goal of splitting the commu

opinion was expressed in an exclusive interview with the tv news agency by the head of the russian olympic committeeislav poznyakov. according to the functionary, this format of the competition was interesting, both for the biathlete himself, and for the fans and the media representative, and in order to help first of all the sport of the highest achievements , our strange people organized a cycle in various competitions that took place both in russia and in belarus , by the way, uh, belarus hosted even most of the winter and summer olympic events this year, and of course, these competitions of ours are by no means alternatives or some kind of then a remark to the international calendar. this is an opportunity in our elite sports athlete to be as fit as possible. so that at that moment when ah, so to speak, e to the people who make the decision will find that the meaninglessness is like this as restrictions, which are in relation to our athletes. eh, unfairly consciously. i believe that we will need to leave the most successful competitions and continue as part of our joint calendar. remind the worl

executive committee of the international olympic committee recommended to allow russian and belarusian athletes to participate in international tournaments, but outlined a number of conditions that moscow regarded as a violation of human rights. and what did stas thomas bach want to know and couldn’t invent a better one, the international olympic committee headed by him put forward merciless conditions for the return of russian and belarusian athletes to the international arena, the executive committee could admit that it was a mistake to remove the russians on february 22, but offers to return on draconian terms athletes with russian or belarusian passports will have to act only as individual athletes. secondly, teams of athletes with russian or belarusian passports cannot be considered third, athletes who support the russian special operation in ukraine and athletes associated with military organizations will not be allowed, but that's not all. no teams or team competitions. only individual athletes in a neutral status and not associated with law enforcement agencies, for example, cs

the international olympic committee is regarded as recognition of their own mistakes committed at the time of the adoption of the recommendation of february 28 , 22, they allow russianusian athletes to participate in international competitions. now the recommendations of the international olympic committee, which have been operating for more than a year, where they are veiled. however , the announced parameters and criteria for the return of russians to international arts are absolutely unacceptable neutral status - this is obvious discrimination based on nationality, violation of basic human and civil rights. we will return after a short advertisement in this will tell. wallpapers against aliens the united states is again struggling with unidentified flying objects with all its might. there are again shooting down air targets, and some us military believe that this is an alien invasion no less. all information. immediately gets into the rank of top secretary. pricing and discounts on your favorite products with up to 50% off. for example, two scooter wafer rolls for the price of one for only 46 rub. scooter. stick stickers funny new stickers only in magnit collect

maria vlasicke will not pass this criterion, however, in the russian olympic committee, the decisionexecutive committee could have been otherwise called discrimination and this criterion lays the foundation for an internal conflict in russian sports and has a direct goal of splitting the community of russian athletes. to divide them into acceptable and the rest is no longer only on a national basis to cause damage to the sports industry in russia as a whole. thus, the current tolerance parameters will not be promote the return of russian and belarusian athletes to participate in international competitions. what is active support for a special military operation could not be explained, and it also leaves the federations the right to refuse russian athletes admission to competitions at any time. the decision of the executive committee could be nothing more than a farce, which is not aimed at normalizing the situation in which the basic principles of the olympic and the charter of the united nations are grossly violated at the same time in the eyes. not a question today participation of

organizations, in the red cross, in the osce, in the store everywhere russian money is flown by the international olympic committeeits position, to what extent it can be supported by russian money, i am not a member of the international committee, but you yourself said that uh, a lot, almost, you are not , for sure, not every organization in this world it may have a certain interest in the entry of such representatives who have money , the russians have money and the russians have a large train of various manipulations , including corruption and doping and all other types at all levels in including in sports, that is, we are not even talking about the moral qualities of these people and the top sports leadership of the russian federation, that is , they even before that spoke under a neutral flag before the invasion of ukraine due to the fact that they are high there at the level of their fsbeshniks were carried er doping samples of all athletes to the laboratory there some er special assessment so because of which they submitted where they took there er let's say doping tests that do not pass and probably inserte

principles of the olympic charter and the charter of the united nations are grossly violated, the russian olympic committeeill continue to contact colleagues from the eyes in order to obtain objective information about the destructiveness of discriminatory measures, destroying the humanitarian and unifying mission of sport. so, we emphasize once again that the recommendations could actually block the way for representatives of all team sports , if nothing changes, then our volleyball players, handball players or basketball players at the paris olympics. we definitely won’t see how it’s always sad for the head coach of the national team, and e- er and tragic, because match practice in europe is exactly the same as the coach and the player. uh, it's going to take time to recover and and getting into a rhythm takes time, so it's not the best. the best option for us is the triumphant return of artyom dzyuba to russian football, the striker was recognized as the winline player of the months in the premier league after an unsuccessful trip to turkey, many were skeptical about inviting dzyuba to lokomotiv, but th

conditions for the admission of russian athletes to international competitions, which today put forward by the ioc are absolutely unacceptable, and an hour ago the olympic committeeisagreement of moscow , the lausanne sports functionaries considered that the russians would be able to compete only in individual, and not in team disciplines. and not all only those who did not support the special operation and do not represent law enforcement agencies. of course, without a flag and an anthem, exclusively in a neutral status in russia, this was called discrimination reporting. stas among the ring road. thomas bach and the best invent could not led and international the olympic committee put forward merciless conditions for the return of russian and belarusian athletes to the international arena, the executive committee could admit that it was a mistake to remove the russians on february 22, but offers to return on draconian terms. won the first athletes with russian or belarusian passports must compete only in individual disciplines. the second team of athletes with russian belarusian passports are not allowed, the third team of athletes actively supporting hostiliti
