Russian and Belarusian athletes have now been barred from the Winter Paralympic Games that start in Beijing on Friday. This follows threats of boycotts by other teams over Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the International Paralympic Committee said. The decision comes a day after the IPC gave athletes from the two countries the green light to participate as neutrals, saying that the governing body had followed its rules and that the athletes were not the aggressors.

But that decision led to an outcry and threats from other countries’ National Paralympic Committees to boycott the Games, IPC President Andrew Parsons told a news conference in Beijing.

Very unfair. They have nothing to do with politics 🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️🤷🏾‍♂️ forcing Putin to surrender by destroying Livelihoods of Athletes is a coward Move💔💔💔
