"They were told to be afraid and silent": Russian Olympic champion spoke nonsense about foreigners

Vyalbe speaks out about foreigners

Elena Vyalbe, president of the Russian Ski Federation, expressed the absurd idea that foreign athletes are afraid to compete with Russian representatives because of fear. The Vladimir Putin regime's henchwoman explained this by the pressure from the authorities of Western countries.

Välbe said this in an interview with the propaganda news agency RIA Novosti. The three-time Olympic champion in relay racing added that the foreigner was "told to sit, be afraid, be silent" about her desire to participate in tournaments with Russians.

"The thing is that athletes may want to compete with us, but they can't decide anything. They've been told to sit, be afraid, be quiet. This is life, they live in their country and obey their leaders. I don't think that athletes from several countries will unite and make a revolution so that Russians can compete as well. An athlete always wants to compete with the strongest, so there is more interest, and when you beat him, you have more pride. But what to do? strong, to go through it with dignity," said Välbe.

Earlier, in a patriotic rant, she said that the West was looking at the Russian Olympics with envy, for which she was scathingly ridiculed by a Norwegian journalist.
