Ukraine warns to boycott Paris Olympics 2024

Ukraine has threatened to boycott the 2024 Paris Olympics following International Olympic Committee's decision to allow the Russian and Belarusian athletes to play at the quadrennial tournament. IOC said out bold and loud that Russian and Belarusian athletes can participate in the competition as 'neutral athletes' without representing their countries.

Ukrainian Youth and Sports Minister Vadym Huttsait in a social media post on Thursday said: "We have informed everyone that the Executive Committee has decided to start consultations with national sports federations on a possible boycott of the Paris 2024 Olympics in case of allowing Russian and Belarusian athletes to return to international sports arenas to end Russia's aggression against Ukraine."

"I hope all the federations, athletes and the entire civilized world pay attention now and we won't have to resort to extremes," he added.

After Russia invaded Ukraine on February 24 last year, the country was banned from various global sports events including Commonwealth Games and FIFA World Cup.
