Everyone has known for a long time that politics and sport are going toe-to-toe. But why athletes, honest athletes, in which I am sure there is every country, and in every composition of the Olympic team. Why they should suffer from political arbitrariness, sports are sports and politics is politics. Why the Russian team was suspended from the Olympic Games, perhaps there will be no intelligible answer, no matter how sad it is, but it must be acknowledged that political intrigues will always be present in such a wonderful sport like the Olympic Games. I wish all the participants, in all sincerity, to make the best of their ach!
