Do we already know if the Russian and Belarussian swimmers will take part in the Olympics? And if so, which ones? More specific Kolesnikov, Rilov and Chikunova.

Seems like this will be a bit like Rio 2016 and the doping scandal response, each IF will be responsible for deciding on participation in their sport. At least, that’s what I deduce from all of this…

Rylov said that he will not go to the Olympics. He also took part in a pro-war rally

This "thought police" policy to accept or deny athletes is madness.  

 

It should be accept everyone or no one. No in between. 

Then the answer will be no one, and it’s clear that some won’t accept that so around we go in circles again

Russian swimmer and world record holder Yevgenia Chikunova appears to support Russia's aggression against Ukraine.

On Instagram, "neutral athlete" Chikunova liked three posts in support of the war and Putin by another swimmer and war supporter, Yevgeny Rylov.

In the first post, dated May 9, 2022, which Chikunova liked, Rylov says that he "supports his president, who does not allow clouds to gather near our borders." Also in this post, Rylov grieves that "our guys are dying."

In a post dated May 9, 2023, which was also liked by Chikunova, Rylov shared a photo of himself at a propaganda rally with the letter Z on his jacket. He wrote about his "sincere support for his President Putin" and that he "did not betray the dignity of the country." Rylov also emphasized that he does not regret his decision to support the aggression against Ukraine.

In a June 24, 2023 post also liked by Chikunova, Rylov says that he always "supports his president Putin" and that all people "should be on the same side as the president."

These are the kind of posts that the "neutral" athlete Yevgenia Chikunova likes.

      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?

      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.
