Russian athletes will most likely not be allowed to participate in the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles, a rhythmic gymnastics coach shared her opinion Irina Viner.
“Los Angeles is not a city from a country that can give us the opportunity to compete in the Olympic Games. We have not competed in America once already,” RBC Sport quotes Viner as saying.
The coach is confident that the fact that several countries did not compete at the Moscow Olympics did not mean that “we lost, because our men did not beat up women.”
In this way, she probably hinted at the boxer from Algeria. Iman Khelif.
Irina Viner spoke at the “Territories of Meanings” forum.
