Quote from Zelenskyy: "Today, I continued our marathon of honesty, which should bring international sports institutions back to true Olympic principles.

I have sent a letter to the presidents of leading international sports federations. The call is simple and fair: to make up their minds about the decision of the International Olympic Committee, which, unfortunately, wants to open up the sport to the propaganda influence of a terrorist state.
