USA: The question of the participation of our team at the Olympics-2018 remains open

79
While in our country there is a heated discussion on the question of whether to perform for Russian athletes under a neutral flag next year in South Korean Pyeongchang, in the United States there is an equally serious discussion about participation in the national team's Olympiad. In an interview with FOX News, United States Permanent Representative to the UN, Nikki Haley, stated that she does not yet have firm confidence in the performance of the US team at the Olympics 2018.

From Ms. Hayley’s statement:
We will follow what is happening. The situation is very complicated. Of course, we are not afraid of anyone, and for our athletes there is a chance to prove that they can overcome any difficulties. But for us, participation in the Olympics is still an open question.




USA: The question of the participation of our team at the Olympics-2018 remains open


Recall that earlier and in France announced the insecurity of participation in the Olympic Games 2018 of the year. The main risk factor is called the "militaristic position of North Korea." This statement was made in France after another rocket test conducted by the DPRK.

It is known that the DPRK itself refused to participate in the Olympiad, stating that the IOC did not take into account the possibility of holding a sports festival both in the south and in the north of the Korean Peninsula. In Pyongyang they called the possibility of holding some OI-2018 competitions as an opportunity to unite Korea at a sporting and cultural level. But does the IOC today advocate sports outside politics ...

      This can only say that the Americans are still preparing an attack on the DPRK. Or just stir up the water.

              You shouldn’t be so. If the US team refuses to participate under the political pretext of "a type of threat from the DPRK," and the Russian team agrees to participate under a white rag, then the shame will be a hundred times higher ...
              I would love to see the US team under a white rag due to the fact that "the athletes invested and waited," but the United States could not provide them with safety, etc. ... I really can not imagine even that.
              Athletes from Russia, under the white, we already watched ...

                    GDP said everything correctly, in the sense that "there will be no prohibition on participation by the state", and so what’s next, “participation or not participation” is a personal matter of every athlete. So let's see how many disgracefuls are torn under the white flag. It would be a great shame for the state to leave Syria before defeating the bearded, surrender the Crimea, and agree to control the border of LDNR and Russia by the UN peacekeepers. And the fact that one of the "compatriots" will rush to run and jump on the conditions of the enemy is already a shame not of the state, but of "compatriots" who will consciously go to humiliation. If Prokhorenko and Nurbagandov were athletes, then 100% they would not go under the white flag. They preferred death to captivity and shame, making a difficult decision on their own without the "permission or ban" of the state.

        This suggests that for the United States, OI is not such a significant event. At the same time, fear for their athletes is quite a place to be. The USA has made so many enemies around the world that soon ordinary citizens of the United States will be very wary of traveling outside their country.
        And in this regard, the question arises: What do we do at the Olympic Games with their VADs, IOCs, white flags, etc.?
        Or can it really create an alternative to the Olympics following the example of the Goodwill Games? After all, how many countries are coming to us for tank biathlon, army games ... and the number of countries is growing.

Type: the Russian Federation decided not to participate in the Winter Olympics because of an open threat to the United States to strike at the DPRK, which jeopardizes security throughout the Korean peninsula. A large concentration of US strike forces in this region indicates the reality of such events. Yes

    By the way ... where did this stupid postulate come from: Sport is out of politics

    --------------------------------
    From the "stupid" Olympic Charter, read it there first. And now we need to worry about sports? We are a neutral country, Putin really has not comprehended this yet, is eager for the presidency of “so-called” Russia.

      If the Americans decide on compensation for broadcasts (not games, they don’t give a damn) but for their advertising traffic during their “coverage so skat” their! TV channels and media, it may well turn out that they will not go.

    This can only say that the Americans are still preparing an attack on the DPRK. Or just stir up the water.

    Or maybe they are preparing a provocation at the games so that there would be a specific reason to unleash another slaughter.

    Yesterday, my mother, she is my teacher, asked: Son, do you think our athletes should go to the Olympics or not? I answered like this: Mom, suppose you will have a regional conference where one teacher from each school will speak a report. And you are going from your school. The school provides you with an office, a computer, for training, plus, the help of teachers and all staff. But at the last moment, they say that your school was suspended, but you were allowed to speak separately from the school with the report. You, of course, can go, because you were getting ready! But there, you will defend not the honor of the school, since it was suspended, but to realize your personal ambitions! After all, maybe you prepared a report better than others! But, Mom, you won’t be able to ask the school to provide transport and necessary assistance at the conference, that is, to go at your own expense, and also, after it, to demand the manifestation of honor and respect, since you, in fact, defended not the honor of the school, but your ambitions! Also, our athletes, I think, can go to Korea at their own expense, who of course can afford it, and not at the expense of the state, and prove that they are better and stronger than others and be proud of yourself! But do not require the country to encourage and recognize their victories. And of course, the country should not be proud of the performances of these athletes!

      Great comparison. Indeed, it is interesting to watch the athletes who are performing and winning under the flag of their country, you are proud of them, rejoice at their victories as yours. In general, you perceive their victories as victories of your country. And an athlete performing under a white rag is of interest to anyone? Unless, only to their loved ones.

    BEGAN ... and this is only the second day after ...
    Well-known television commentator Dmitry Guberniev expressed the opinion that the decision of the Executive Committee of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) is bursting at the seams.
    Yesterday, the IOC organization announced that coaches and doctors working with athletes who have violated anti-doping rules will not be able to participate in the 2018 Games.
    However, it is currently not clear what will happen to the specialists who worked with the removed Russian athletes, and now representing other Olympic committees.
    - Guys, you will laugh, but Wolfgang Pichler does not go to the Olympics if you follow the requirements of the IOC! He’s the coach of the doping team from the Russian team, ”Guberniev wrote on his Instagram page. - The same applies to his brave assistants and other foreign coaches of dirty Russian athletes in all sports.
    Fire! It seems that the IOC’s solution is cracking at the seams! Something will be added during the play. The Russian forest is cut - European and American slivers fly past Korea. Scream! Long live the Lausanne CAS. The fire!

      colonization without good athletic training

    Will the American team participate in the Olympic Games 2018 for me the tenth question. Our guarantor spoke out in the sense that we ourselves gave an occasion. He tends to. that there were violations - why then didn’t he dismiss Mudko? -, but they say his Western friends and partners have greatly exaggerated. In general, athletes themselves must decide. Sneakers immediately sang that, they say. you have to go even with gritted teeth, referring mainly to the fact that a carrot was hung in front of Russia's nose. That is, if Russia will behave well, no one will show the Russian flag, and God forbid they do not sing a hymn anywhere, then our officials will be restored in all rights. But then the dog is upset. I am sure that the athletes will do everything, but who guarantees that some Western bastard will not provoke, during the hockey game he will not show the Russian flag and Putin, Putin will not shout. That is the end of all efforts. Messages about this in the west will come from any iron. So when you come to an agreement, gentlemen, officials, it’s more necessary. And even expose the athletes to shame and the sanctions will not be lifted.

    Sport has long been a business. I personally do not care about the athletes, they will not pay me for the apartment. I think so because not one of our athletes should go. If they do not go, the country will be proud of Russian athletes. Hockey players gathered to go, let them knock down. I WILL NOT CATER DIRECTLY TO HOCKEY. Skins are corrupt. Money is money, but listening to the Russian anthem and seeing the flag of the country cannot be explained with words. They are coming for money, and all their words like everyone knows that we are from the Russian Federation, they are driving us away with bullshit. Bl, so that I no longer hear that we are a united, united country, with a Russian character, etc.

    You shouldn’t be so. If the US team refuses to participate under the political pretext of "a type of threat from the DPRK," and the Russian team agrees to participate under a white rag, then the shame will be a hundred times higher ...

    -------------------------------
    I agree with you. The United States, in contrast to Russia, demonstrates political independence. We want-we participate, we want-we don’t participate, we want-we erase Olympism into powder as unnecessary. Russia, in the person of officials and athletes, who do not care what flag to fly under, for some reason expands on this Olympism with perseverance worthy of better application. Well, "let's keep international institutions," "well, take me." One must be a country, a power, and not the Gazprom-Rosneft oil service staff in the end. Not a neutral territory with a neutral petty bourgeois president, who recalled the children's allowances as early as the 18th year of his reign and modestly kept silent that this was the start of his "presidential campaign".

    People even oppose- "and you know what a dream is, he went to a dream from 5-6 years, the Olympics is the meaning of life." If you are humiliated in this "sense of life" as much as possible, then what for it is needed. Their dream is to cut the dough, not the Olympics. The Olympics is just a PR that the Olympic champion is playing.
