"How are other countries better off?" World champion from Russia sent the IOC a message, accusing them of lawlessness
Gennady Kurdin, the winner of the 1979 IIHF World Junior Championship, threw a fit of hysteria over the International Olympic Committee's (IOC) plans to allow Russia to participate in the 2024 Games in Paris as a refugee team. The two-time USSR champion accused the organization of lawlessness.
Kurdin said this in an interview with the propaganda TV channel Match TV. He advocated that Russian athletes should not agree to perform without a flag and anthem, and also began to argue that Russia should not be punished for the invasion of Ukraine, which he called "a geopolitical conflict".

"It's like the world has gone crazy. Some kind of lawlessness is going on. Sports have become a hostage of politics. Well, then let's declare everyone a refugee. How are other countries better off? Don't they have geopolitical conflicts? And who provokes these conflicts anyway? Yes, the Russian hockey team won gold in 2018 - without the flag and anthem. But everyone knows that it was Russia. Even if it was in neutral jerseys. And now they will call us refugees? But we have to respect ourselves. Fuck them all," said Kurdin.
