Lithuanian swimmers refused to stand on a pedestal with representatives of the Russian Federation

Lithuanian swimmers who participate in the World Games of Veterans of Sports in Taiwan have refused to rise to the pedestal of honor with Russian athletes.

About it reports 15min.lt.

This position was taken by the Ausha Garjulene swimmer, which won four gold and two silver medals, Sigitas Khkjavichus, who won three gold and three silver medals, and athlete Lina Belinene.

On veterans’ games (World Masters Games-2025) Taipei came 25,000 professionals who have already completed active sports. However, sports games take place in Taiwan after a long break – the last such event was held in New Zealand in 2017.

“There were also our unfriendly Russian neighbors, they participated under the flags. We had to compete with them in one relay. We decided not to climb them on the pedestal, but to come separately and to reward us separately,” – quotes Jauns.lv Lina Belenine.

World Masters Games-2025 – the third largest multi -sports event on the planet after the Olympics and Asian Games: 25 049 participants from 108 countries, 35 sports. Games are held every four years for veterans athletes. The International Masters Games (IMGA) International Association is the organizer. The status of competitions is similar to veteran world championships, but covers all Olympic and a number of neo -Olympic disciplines.

We will remind, the representative of the Lithuanian team on functional sports Cornelia Dudyati decided to star from the competitions of the World Cup, which took place in Budapest (Hungary), through admission to competitions of Russians.
