IOC Bans Russia from 2018 Olympic Games
国际奥委会禁止俄罗斯参加2018年奥运会
The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has banned Russia from the 2018 Olympics in South Korea this February. The Russian team has been banned due to evidence of doping in previous Olympics. Russia’s “clean” athletes will be allowed to compete as an OAR (Olympic athlete from Russia) with a neutral flag. Following the IOC’s announcement, President Putin said that he will not forbid athletes from participating in the Games, however, some Russian athletes are expected to boycott the competition. The standards in several sports, including hockey and figure skating, are expected to be lower at the 2018 Games without the Russian powerhouse.
国际奥林匹克委员会(IOC)禁止俄罗斯参加二月份于韩国举行的2018奥运会。俄罗斯队因在之前的奥运会中使用兴奋剂而被禁。俄罗斯“清白”的运动员可以以中立旗帜的名义和OAR(来自俄罗斯的奥林匹克运动员)身份参加奥运会。国际奥委会宣布该决定后,普京总统称其不会反对运动员参加比赛,但是,一些俄罗斯运动员会抵制此次比赛。2018年奥运会中,没有了俄罗斯的强大竞争力,预计包括冰球和花样滑冰在内的几项运动的标准会降低。
