Kiev accuses IOC of promoting violence, destruction
Adviser to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, Mykhailo Podolyak, on Saturday condemned the International Olympic Committee (IOC) for allowing Russian and Belarusian athletes to take part in the Paris 2024 Olympics, despite Kiev's calls to ban them from competing as neutrals.
The official said the IOC proposes a promotion of violence, mass murders and destruction, arguing that "sport doesn't exist outside politics."
"Sport promotes it. Thus, the IOC promotes the anti-human policy," Podolyak concluded.
