The French government are cowards. They could announce no Russian or Belarusian will be given a visa to compete and the IOC will have no right to interfere 

I would be shocked if the neutral athlete pathway wasn't something that was designed with input from the French government.

prepare to be shocked...it's surely decided by the superMan in charge, the one and only 1976 Fencing Olympic Champion himself

 

he's only to take from Governments of the Olympic hosts, not to give

Confirmation that Russia will not attempt to qualify for Olympic places in rowing

Think they were only eligible to compete in the single/double sculls and the pair right?

Boxing

 

"“Russian boxers will never go to competitions in a neutral status. We cannot change our Motherland! We do not condemn anyone, but we have a clearly formed position. This is the opinion of the entire boxing family,” TASS quotes the words of Tatiana Kiriyenko, Secretary General of the Russian Boxing Federation.!

Sailing

 

"In sailing the situation is almost similar. True, according to SE information , only Russian champions in the Nacra 17 class Elizaveta Zherebtsova / Mikhail Ushkov, who now live outside our country, are going to the Olympic selection. But, let's say, on my own initiative. The first numbers all refused to go"

Archery

 

"A few days earlier, Russian archers, who, we recall, won two silver medals at the Tokyo Games in 2021, abandoned the Olympics in Paris. “Firstly, our leading athletes represent Dynamo or CSKA. We interviewed the entire team. The team said that without a flag and anthem, in a gray uniform, they have no desire to participate in the selection and in the Olympic Games. "

Finally

 

"Even earlier, the leadership of Russian artistic and rhythmic gymnastics, swimming, diving and weightlifting declared their reluctance to perform at international competitions and specifically at the Games in Paris in a discriminatory status. So it is already obvious that in Paris, if we see neutral Russians, it will be at a minimum."

    • KHL launches 3x3 championships with 8 teams, it starts on 19th December and finishes in July
    • I remember when I was a child and I was on holiday with my parents in Tunisia, I think in 1999? We were on a trip to the desert near the border with Algeria. The guide said something like that: Algeria is a few minutes from here but we won't go there because there is a war going on there and it's not safe.
    • Netanyahu is bad but unfortunately Hamas helps him maintain power. Every attack they make is a reinforcement of Netanyahu's rhetoric about the country's security, etc. In the fall of 2023, Netanyahu was already losing support and then suddenly a big Hamas attack on a festival near the Gaza Strip. Coincidence? It wouldn`t surprise me at all if Netanyahu knew about the plan for this attack but did nothing so that he would then have the tools to maintain his power. I also remember Ariel Sharon - he was probably even more radical than Netanyahu but he had a brain hemorrhage and fell into a coma.
    • Ah yes, post-colonial bickering never gets too old. Let me grab my popcorn!   Netanyahu is on a personal revenge mission to avenge his brother's death for his entire political life and people still act like they're surprised by his actions
    • MId-1962.  Almost all the Jews were driven out in a few days, even though they had been living there since Classical, pre-Muslim times.   Perhaps our friend could give us details of of any current Algerian plans to welcome them back, restore their property, guarantee their safety etc etc?    
    • In what year did Algeria free itself from French influence? 1960, exactly?
    • Or better, perhaps he'd like to tell us what happened to the 140,000 Jews who were living in Algeria in 1960, as against the 200 who live there now? 
    • There are still many people of Jewish origin in Central and Eastern Europe who have nothing to do with the state of Israel. What ties does Zelensky have to the state of Israel? Apart from he waś there as president of Ukraine and speaking in the Knesset? Nothing. In the power circles in Moscow there were/are many people of Jewish origin and what about that? A large part of the power apparatus of the USSR was based on Jews, especially in the years shortly after WWII.   Instead of constantly writing about Jews, would be better to tell me which country Algeria has better diplomatic relations with: Tunisia or Egypt?  
    • Handy guide for the perplexed.  
    • I`m a bit disappointed with the starts of the Italian team. I was counting on progress from last year. And here it looks like Bagnis is still very uneven. In Cortina there will be 3 competitions with medals to win and it would be a shame not to use our track to win 1-2 medals. The same goes for luge.
