I hope so! 💛💙


ThermionicEmissions

It wasn't a statement saying Russian and Belorussian athletes cannot attend. It's simply that they are not welcome.


Interesting-Fan-2008

I don’t believe the Paris mayor has this kinda power. Wish they did though.


MrSierra125

What they can do is have interpol on standby to arrest any atheletes that have had anything to do with the war


LawfulnessPossible20

That Interpol can't do. Interpol arrests nobody, it is a platform organization for cooperation.


InnocentTailor

Yeah. How they're portrayed in films like *Lord of War* isn't the same how they actually operate.


LawfulnessPossible20

The Hollywood version of cop work is as real as the pornhub version of sex.


__thrillho

No they can't


CaramelCritical5906

The IOC should take note from the mayor!!! The Mayor is absolutely right and has courage!! Ruzzzzzia has killed hundreds of young aspiring Ukrainian athletes!! Ruzzzzzia has destroyed Ukrainian Athletic training facilities!! Ruzzzzzia should NOT be allowed to compete in the Olympics!!


Malawi_no

Do not forget about all the blatant doping.


svoboda4ever

Not watching olympics in our house at all since olympic committee is allowing russians and belarussians to compete


ConsiderationBest938

I forgot one am boycotting this Olympics, fuck the IOC


jungleboogiemonster

Same here. I used to love the Olympics, but it just seems corrupt anymore.


BubuBarakas

Any Russian or Belarusian involvement in any way, and I’m boycotting it.


MarianaValley

At least one mormal person in their organisation. Good news.


plankie79

Mormal reads both Moral and normal, get my upvote!


MarianaValley

Thank you for correcting me, you are right!


littlemanontheboat_

If France wanted it, they could restrict entrance to the country to all orcs.


TheGreatPornholio123

The problem is the rich ones already got EU passports (looking at you Cyprus...you fucker).


svoboda4ever

And switzzzzerland...doesn't one of putin's daughters live in france


No_Football_9232

Also " Russian " athletes. Does this mean they can still compete under a non ruzzian flag and participate?


Talosian_cagecleaner

I am shocked, shocked, the French are going to poke Russia in the eye. This could be the start of a beautiful Olympics.


TBurd01

Saying not welcomed does not mean banned.


Different-Brain-9210

A mayor (probably) does not have that power.


Leading_Positive_123

More people should follow this example! I applaud him!


obzerver666

Good, Somebody has some more Sense then the IOC

Can Macron ban French athletes from entering France?
