Olympic champion Yuri Borzakovsky ridiculously explained the suspension of Russian athletes from international competitions. In typical pathos for the representatives of the aggressor country, the former track and field athlete spoke about the incredible level of athletes from Russia, who are "the strongest in the whole world", and the West's fear of him.

Borzakovsky made such an absurd statement in an interview with the propaganda news agency TASS. The winner of the 2004 Athens Games called the sanctions against Russia intrigues and expressed confidence that soon the Russian athletes will return to the tournaments and they will prove that "we are the best".

"Russian athletes are the strongest in the whole world in any case. It's no secret, the West knows it, they are afraid of us. All these intrigues that are now being woven around Russian sport will come to an end in the end. I think, that the sports management will do everything for our comeback, we will come back to the Olympics and we'll prove that we are the best," said Borzakovskiy.

Earlier, two-time Olympic swimming champion Denis Pankratov accused the IOC of hating Russians. In addition, he demanded "in a purely human way" to answer for the suspension of Russia.

As reported by OBOZREVATEL, Russian Sports Minister Oleg Matytsin said that the aggressor country "has no quarrel with anyone," and demanded that athletes from Russia be allowed to participate in all competitions without any conditions.
