I just know that russia spends a lot of money on anti-Ukrainian propaganda in the Eastern Europe.

The numer of fakes is enormous. For example - such an absurd like: the swans disappered from Prague because they were eaten by Ukrainians...

Matteo Salvini recently did probably the first good thing in his political career – as a current minister of infrastructure he led to the construction of a bobsleigh track in Cortina on OG in 2026, when it seemed the competition would be held outside Italy: in Austria or Switzerland. He did it not so much out of love for the sport, but as a result of some political intrigue in Italy's center-right ruling coalition. But I'm trying to be objective, so he deserves praise here – although, of course, it's a rather poor record for someone who's been in politics for over 20 years

Officially confirmed by the IPC - no russians and belorussians at the 2026 Paralympics.

It is a very good decision for Italy in my oppinion - the host country will not face with the russian anthem and flag which were allowed by the IPC.

 

This IPC decision was reverted by the intenational federations responsible for 6 Paralympic sports. None of them allowed russians to take part in qualification
