VLADIVOSTOK, Sep 7 Two-time Olympic hockey champion Vyacheslav Fetisov said that with colleagues is going to contact the IOC for clarification about why he recommended not to allow Russian athletes to participate in foreign competitions. «I would like to put the question this way. I can (put) as an Olympic champion, I will gather my colleagues. We need to agree on these decisions It seems to me that this is the only correct format. (I plan) in the near future,» Fetisov said at the Eastern Economic Forum. He noted that he had already discussed this with colleagues. «We need to challenge the system so that they explain to us on the basis of what they made a decision. Neither the IOC map, the documents of sports organizations say about the disqualification of all sports. Or they will have to decide to introduce points in the map in the event of a military conflict, that the athletes of one of the parties are automatically excluded from the world competition port. But then it will not be a sports organization, but a military-political one,” Fetisov said. According to him, an athlete who is preparing for the 2024 Olympics in Paris has his rights. This is an issue that should be seriously discussed. To say that someone just advised and the safety of the athletes was the main thing — then you need to ask the athletes. I can't imagine the state of the athletes who are preparing and preparing for international games. It's impossible for them to say anything. I am the defender of the attacking plan, and in order to be on time under other people's gates and score a goal, you need to understand the situation. I now feel it is time to counterattack. The image of an attacking defender who scored the most in history,” Fetisov said. “It seems to me that our sports leaders are not finalizing … Why do we need alternative games?” the agency’s interlocutor added.
