    Except as he explained in the video, Russians who support the war effort are banned as was a Ukranian who had a tribute to kia Ukranians on his helmet. It’s the double standard.

      The ukrainian wasn’t even banned outright. The IOC even offered a lot of concessions, he would have been allowed to wear the helmet before, during the medal ceremony, on the podium, basically everywhere except during the actual run. He disregarded all compromises.

      Russians just got banned.

      Pissraelis can do whatever.
