Beijing, Feb 3, Sergey Yaremenko. Russian athletes do not see discomfort in hard restrictions due to the coronavirus at the Beijing Olympics, Stanislav Pozdnyakov, President of the Russian Olympic Committee, told reporters. «The bubble» is the reality we are used to. I don't see any discomfort in this. This is part of sports life, athletes no longer pay attention. The village is located conveniently, cozy houses. The interior decoration of the premises is made of materials that feel warm. Plus, our team of specialists did some work, placed our paraphernalia and mascots,” said Pozdnyakov. The head of the ROC also appreciated the security measures that were introduced during the arrival of athletes at the Beijing airport. “Unprecedented security measures have been taken at the airport. The sports community has been living in this mode for a long time. Here they are stricter, but this is understandable. There are many flights today, so we waited a bit longer for luggage. But between arrival and accommodation took about three hours. This is normal for the Olympics,» Pozdnyakov added. The opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics will take place on February 4.
