Mikheil Mamiashvili: Ukraine has excluded itself from the world wrestling community
President of the Russian Wrestling Federation (FSBR) Mikhail Mamiashvili said that Ukraine has excluded itself from the world wrestling community. His words are quoted by RIA Novosti.
Mamiashvili said that the Ukrainians did not come to Istanbul for the final world Olympic qualifying tournament in wrestling. “They isolated themselves from the entire wrestling world. For what? Apparently, they were instructed that way,” he thought.
On April 12, the National Olympic Committee called for wrestlers from Russia and Belarus not to be allowed to participate in the Olympics due to violation of neutrality requirements and support of a special operation. They demanded that the International Olympic Committee (IOC) take action.
After this, Mamiashvili called the statement of the Ukrainian side a shame and humiliation. He urged them to preserve their humanity.
