NOC of Ukraine to mull boycotting 2024 Summer ympics

As MP Zhan Beleniuk posted on Telegram, publishing a screenshot of the NOC's letter, the extraordinary General Assembly of the National ympic Committee of Ukraine will be held on February 3. One of the issues on the agenda is consultations with national sports federations regarding a possible boycott of the 2024 ympic Games if Russian and Belarusian athletes are allowed to return to international sports arenas until Russia's aggression against Ukraine ends.

"It looks like they will return… so this event will have serious consequences," the MP noted.

As reported, the International ympic Committee published a statement, assuming that Russians and Belarusians will be able to take part in the ympics in Paris under a neutral flag.

Minister of Youth and Sports of Ukraine, President of the National ympic Committee Vadym Hutsait said that the participation of Russian and Belarusian athletes in the ympic Games is unacceptable for Ukraine.
