"We will win": Russian sports minister says that Russia "history does not allow us to behave differently"

Russian Minister of Sports Oleg Matytsin expressed the incredibly absurd idea that the victories of an aggressor country, including in competitions, were destined by history. The official actually called Russians special on the basis of their nationality, emphasizing their superiority over other nations.

Matytsin said this during a so-called celebration of sports veterans, the TASS news agency reported. He added that there is a ban on "supporting our president," and also mentioned "the conscience of our great country."

"We are on the verge of difficult tests, not only in sports but also in life. I am sure that we will pass this time with honor, despite sanctions and pressure. We are a great country with great victories. Our strength is in unity, in supporting each other. Sport is different because we don't wait for commands or appeals, athletes are always on the front lines, and they are still on the front lines, despite the ban on speaking in support of our president. We cannot betray the conscience of our great country. We will win in every arena, we have a history that does not allow us to behave differently. We are proud of our history," said Matytsin.

Earlier, State Duma deputy Roman Teryushkov threatened "shame and shame" to Russian athletes who condemn the war in Ukraine.

As reported by OBOZREVATEL, former player of the Russian national team Andrei Solomatin said that Ukrainian children "should be remade". In addition, he admired the dictator Vladimir Putin, because he "did not bend to these faggots, to this West."
