MOSCOW, April 6 Russian athletes who have changed citizenship. «As for athletes changing citizenship, I can say that you should not react so sharply to their actions and row everyone with the same brush. You should not indiscriminately call everyone traitors. Everyone has their own life, their own history and their own for that reason. Everyone has the right to their choice, «RBC-Sport quotes her words. At the end of February, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) recommended that international sports federations not allow Russian and Belarusian athletes to participate in competitions due to the situation in Ukraine. A number of IFs have followed this recommendation.
