Zakharova was called an "alcoholic who disgraces the Foreign Ministry" in response to her statement on the situation around the Olympics

Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova became a real laughingstock for Russian fans after her attack on Thomas Bach. According to Zakharova, Bach used his official position and the Olympic Games not so much to develop world sport, "but to promote neoliberal approaches to 'inclusiveness.

Zakharova was especially hysterical about the situation with boxer Imane Khelif from Algeria, who was born a girl but was confirmed to have a disorder of sexual development (DSD), which causes some women to have XY chromosomes and testosterone levels in the blood that are typical for men.

"Bakh tried to cover up his dubious decisions to allow some female boxers to participate in the Olympic tournament with ambiguous comments on gender issues and outright lies against the International Boxing Association. He spoke about the lack of a scientific way to distinguish a woman from a man," the Russian Foreign Ministry's press service quoted its employee as saying.

In response, sports fans from Russia advised their compatriot to pay more attention to local issues.

"There's a critical situation in Kursk, and Masha can't get enough of Bakh," "Doesn't the Foreign Ministry have other things to do? The country is a pariah, and she's talking about the Olympics..." - users write.

Others recommend that the famous lover of strong drinks not be poured anymore.

"When will they realize that this alcoholic is disgracing the Foreign Ministry?", "It's so good to see their agony", Manka Obligatsia should not be poured anymore. And take away the glass so that no thoughts arise," the fans joke.

As OBOZ.UA reported, earlier Zakharova harshly criticized the closing ceremony of the 2024 Olympics, using epithets in which ordinary Russians recognized their president. The diplomat said that "only the closing of the Olympic Games in Paris could be worse than the opening of the Olympic Games in Paris" and France "did not miss this chance."
