Russia Paralympics: War & Sporting Return

Of all things, para-sport, which is intended to enable war vibrations with participation, allows a brutal aggressor with all rights. This also increases the pressure on the IOC.

FReals of the Russian composer Alexander Alexandrow can look forward to a special comeback. At the latest in 2028, at the Paralympics in Los Angeles, Alexandrov’s melody, who also accompanies the Hymn of the Russian Federation, will probably be again with gold gains of Russian athletes. While the white-blue-red flag flutters in the California summer air, the winners can look forward to a few million rubles special bonus in their homeland, possibly on a parade. Russia already conscientiously supplies its veterans with prostheses and training courses, so that the wounded in para competitions serve as a symbol of national resilience, even after the war. Sardon, after special operations such as that in Ukraine.
