Il presidente ucraino Volodymyr Zelenskiy ha assegnato al corridore skeleton ucraino Vladyslav Heraskevych la medaglia della libertà del paese dopo essere stato squalificato dalla competizione olimpica di skeleton a causa del suo “casco della memoria”, che raffigurava gli atleti uccisi dopo l’invasione della Russia.

Just looking at the helmet makes my eyes wet. So glad Zelenskyy awarded him at least 🙏

Слава Україні 💙💛

IOC, by discriminating against him, brought more awareness and support to his cause, than any gold medal ever could.

So, perversely, thank you IOC.

Heroyam Slava

Ukrainians have shown themselves to be honorable, resilient, and deeply patriotic people who stand with remarkable courage for their freedom and identity.
Their spirit reflects not only love of country, but also a profound commitment to democracy, community, and human dignity.

Russians are nothing like this!!
They are just rude, impolite and not decent at all. Nobody wants them for their nice kind. Nobody wants to have them at the next table in the restaurant, in the next room in the hotel decent people just hate Russians.

I miss the Cold War when they were locked in behind the wall. The world was so much better.

True hero.
IOC is full of weak sauce.
