Filippo Sensi, membro del Senato italiano, e il suo potente discorso a sostegno di Vladyslav Heraskevych e il suo omaggio ai difensori ucraini caduti.

The IOC says Vladyslav Heraskevych’s helmet doesn’t comply with the regulations. Does the russian military aggression comply?

Since the IOC doesn’t allow it, allow me to briefly tell you about some of those athletes, those who can’t be on the track in Cortina today with Vladyslav. More than 650 of them were killed.

**Yevhen Malyshev**, a biathlete, was killed in Kharkiv a month before his twentieth birthday.

**Maria Lebed**, fifteen, was at her home in Dnipro, a missile.

**Dmytro Sharpar**, twenty-five, a figure skater, died in Bakhmut while fighting to defend the front line.

**Volodymyr Androshchuk**, twenty-two, an athlete, also died in Bakhmut.

**Daria Kurdel,** twenty, was killed in a missile attack on Kharkiv.

**Ivan Kononenko**, wounded in battle, wanted to return to the front lines, despite his doctors’ advice.

**Alina Perehudova,** a fourteen-year-old weightlifter, was queuing with her mother and uncle in Mariupol to stock up on water.

**Maksym Halinichev**, a twenty-two-year-old boxer, was killed while defending his village in Luhansk region.

**Oleksii Loginov**, a twenty-three-year-old hockey player, was killed in Luhansk.

**Fedir Yepifanov,** eighteen, a fencer, killed on the front in Zaporizhzhia.

**Kateryna Dyachenko**, eleven, a gymnast, was hit by a bomb in Mariupol, her family buried under the rubble, survivors in a hospital destroyed by an air raid immediately afterward. No one in her family survived.

**Karina Bakur**, a seventeen-year-old kickboxer and world champion, was taken to the hospital in critical condition after a missile attack in Berestyn, where she threw herself on her father to protect him from the fire.

**Victoria Ivashko**, a nine-year-old judoka, was struck by a missile in Kyiv three years ago and was at home with her mother.

These, Mr. President, are the names and stories of the Ukrainian athletes that Heraskevych wanted to carry with him as a memorial, to give them strength, to allow them to compete with him as they deserved. The IOC disqualified this, and nothing else, and this disqualifies the IOC forever.

May God forgive them, may God forgive us. Thank you

The Olympics was created to bring unity between countries. Explain how this rule has served that purpose? Disgusting. I won’t be watching anymore.

Bravo

IOC, like FIFA and others ain’t but _mafiose_ organizations. Just follow the money.
