I'm half Ukrainian and wouldn't and haven't booed Russian athletes. 

You know, I am from Ukraine and I do not understand too. 
The only reason I can see - Portugal could deny that quota.

I’m so happy for her, she’s been improving and I really think she’s a step ahead of  others divers, except the Chinese of course, and this time she proved it.
 
Also Jodoin di Mariah did a great competition and looks like she could grow even more.
 

Bravo Italy!!! This guy is great. I hope they will add this event quickly.

Silver medal for Minisini

Now Is mandatory for us to take the team quota, that will give us a duet quota too, i hope our chance to make it are still good

Herojam slava! Thank you very much for your words and support. 
People from so many countries helped our athletes that I cannot mention all of them here without creating offtop (I think all the countries of forums members writing here). Ukrainians are very grateful for this support.
 
And beeing specific on artisitic swimming, our team got a great support from LEN, Italian national federation and Paolo Barelli personally. The entire team is grateful for the hospitality in Ostia in March 2022. Trainings in Ostia were invaluable for us. I wish Italian team to seal its ticket to Paris.

It would be first quotas to Paris for Palestine and Syria 

It has never been about the “strongest athletes/teams” competing.
 
If it was the marathon would be 40 Ethiopians deep. The track 100m would have 15 Jamaicans and 15 from the USA. The swimming 100m freestyle would have 8-10 Australians
 
There would be no African representation in more than half the sports. 
 
It’s fine if you think that’s a better Olympics, but it sounds awful to me. A global spread is far more enjoyable to watch for me. For some just reaching the Olympics is a goal. That’s good enough 

No women's elite event was held. So the spot will be reallocated.

Flavinha  Happy that she finally won an individual medal.

YESSSS, i'm so happy for South Korea, this is the best day of my life as a gymfan. 

This seems highly unrealistic but i'm happy for Poland (and for coach Lavarini too) and maybe is a good thing we lost 😬

Good luck Italy for qualification via ranking, btw 

Spain just pulled out of the competition in Boekelo
 
therefore  Italy are mathematically qualified to the Olympic Games in Paris
