The first decisions regarding Russian athletes after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine have already been taken. and UEFA suspended Russian clubs and national team, the FIVB deprived Russia of the right to host this year’s world volleyball championships, and the International Paralympic Committee did not let Russian paralympics go to the Beijing Olympics.
Russians support their troops. The shameful gesture of the gang players
The Russians, however, do not intend to stand by and are trying to oppose such decisions. The aggressor-state athletes are also openly supporting the decisions and the bandit attack of Russian troops on Ukraine.
A perfect example of this is the behavior of the players just before the match of Ska Neftianik – in the Russian gang league. Just before the meeting began, everyone stood on the ice in the shape of the letter “Z”, which became a symbol of the Russian troops invading Ukraine. The photo of Russian players quickly circulated on social media and aroused a lot of controversy in the West.
Unfortunately, this is not the first example of this type of gesture in Russian society. Videos from schools, universities, and workplaces where people positioned themselves in this way have already appeared on the Internet. This is, of course, the work of propaganda by the Vladimir Putin regime.
Bandy is a team game very similar to ice hockey. The main difference is that the players do not use the puck but the ball. In addition, the ice rink is much larger, and the players use special, curved sticks. This discipline is practiced mainly in Scandinavia and, among others, from the Netherlands, where he comes from.
