Total overlap between sport and regime

Flagrant and repeated non-compliance with the Olympic Charter

Why should practically all Russian athletes be excluded from the Paris Olympics? Because their country is the world champion - by far - when it comes to contempt for the Olympic spirit!
#ParisOlympicsWithoutPutin
Olympics campaign: while the war is having a brutal impact on Ukrainian athletes, refusing Russian sportokratura participation in the 2024 Olympics is the only way to avoid their politicisation by Vladimir Putin!
The decision to exclude Russians and Belarusians from #Paris2024 would have serious geopolitical consequences, and we can understand the reluctance of the IOC and any person sincerely attached to the humanist values of sport.
However, the vast majority of these athletes are not competitors like the others.
This is what our argument shows, after in-depth investigation. The facts he reports speak for themselves.
You can also find here the current official positions of the IOC, the sports federations and Ukraine, as well as ours , which is clear: no Russians and Belarusians at the 2024 Olympics, except rare positions taken against the war and/or against the regime.
We therefore invite you to sign and above all disseminate our #JOsansPoutine petition as widely as possible ! (available in several languages) as well as the summary of the official positions of the IOC, international federations and Ukraine.
Summary of official positions
NO
to Putin's army of athletes
at the Paris Olympics
The investigation we carried out and which was taken up by Le Monde and other media shows that more than 80% of the 2021 Tokyo Russian medallists support their country's war of aggression towards Ukraine
Ukrainian athletes see their sports facilities go up in smoke, their training seriously disrupted, their lives threatened almost daily by bombings or mines, while many high-level athletes die at the front.
From Stalin to Putin, from medal-winning athletes to mafiosi, our arguments demonstrate the major role of sport in building and propagandising the Putin regime, and explain why the participation of Russian athletes (with very rare exceptions) in the 2024 Olympics would trample Olympic values, disadvantage Ukrainian athletes and reinforce politics in sport.
We featuer a table of Russian medalists at the Tokyo 2021 Games who support Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

They will inevitably serve as a springboard for the propaganda of Vladimir Putin's autocratic and warmongering regime.
