Averbukh supported the decision of Russian TV channels to refuse to broadcast the Games
Ice show director and producer Ilya Averbukh assessed the decision of Russian TV channels to refuse to broadcast the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris. His words are quoted by Sport24.
Averbukh said that he was not interested in the Games without Russians, and called the decision not to show the competitions on public television correct. “I think that if someone wants to watch their favorite sports at the Olympics, they will find a way,” he said.
On July 13, the Sports.ru portal reported that Russian TV channels would not show the Olympic Games for the first time in 40 years. It was noted that the decision was due to the fact that domestic athletes would only be able to compete in the competitions as neutrals.
The Olympic Games will be held in Paris from July 26 to August 11.
