MOSCOW, January 26, Sergey Pogrebnyak. President of the Russian Olympic Committee (ROC) Stanislav Pozdnyakov said that distrust of the Russian Sputnik V vaccine must be fought. Previously, Russian freestylers were unable to take part in the Canadian World Cup qualification stages for the Olympics due to their lack of vaccination with a vaccine approved by the World Health Organization. «Require a certain type vaccines are unacceptable. Our vaccines are recognized in more than 70 countries. Each country has the right to use developments that have proven their worth. And the words about Sputnik from foreign colleagues… It smacks of cave nihilism, we will fight it! We should not indulge the North American colleagues,» Pozdnyakov told reporters.
