Ukrainian Olympic athlete Olena Smaha expressed her support for fellow Ukrainian athlete Vladyslav Heraskevych. Heraskevych, a skeleton racer, wore a helmet featuring portraits of Ukrainians killed by russian aggression.
On February 9, the IOC banned the memorial display on his helmet, while allowing an Italian snowboarder to display the russian flag on his own.
