Ukraine accuses IOC of ‘promoting’ Russian invasion

Kyiv this Monday (01/30/2023) accused the International Olympic Committee (IOC) of “propagating war” in Ukrainefor considering the possibility of allowing the participation of Russian athletes under a neutral flag in the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris.

“The IOC is a promoter of war, murder and destruction.”, – Presidential adviser Mykhailo Podoliak wrote on Twitter, personally addressing the head of the committee, Thomas Bach.

“The IOC enjoys watching Russia destroy Ukraine and then offer Russia a platform to promote genocide.from the Ukrainians, he added. “It is clear that the money that the Olympic hypocrisy buys is not saturated with the smell of Ukrainian blood. Isn’t that right, Mr Bach?


Since the Russian invasion began in February 2022, Ukraine has called for the exclusion of Russia and Belarus, a Kremlin ally, from the 2024 Olympics to be held in France.

Nevertheless, The IOC said last week that it was exploring the possibility of allowing participation. Russian and Belarusian athletes have been banned from most international competitions since the start of the conflict.
