Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said that the international sports movement is degrading due to the actions of Western countries. According to Zakharova, the IOC leadership and Westerners "do not disdain the lowest methods" in their efforts to abolish Russian sport.
The Russian diplomat even listed what the International Olympic Committee allegedly does: bribery, threats and blackmail against the NOC, incitement, organizing surveillance of Russian athletes, and discrimination.
"We are convinced that such actions harm the entire global sports community and lead to the degradation of the entire global sports movement. By eliminating the strongest participants and thereby reducing the level of competition, international organizations slow down the development of world sports. The spectacle and interest of spectators in the competition is being lost," the Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman said in an interview with Match TV.
This passage by the Russian official caused a real hysteria among her compatriots.
"Why is she even given a microphone? It's clear how she got her position, but why show it to everyone?", "Jesus, isn't she ashamed of herself?", "Probably an order from Lavrov to write every day about how Russia is being oppressed by the rotten", - the emotions on the network do not restrain.
Russian sports fans remind who started the war in February 2022.
"Let's kill our neighbors because they have a different political path, and at the same time have fun playing any games, holding concerts. After all, dying is the business of the young and the poor. And the rich and the elderly demand and want spectacles and blood," users mock.
The fans also reminded Zakharova of her passion for alcoholic beverages.
