Ukrainian skeleton racer Vladyslav Heraskevych claims the IOC has banned his helmet featuring images of war victims, which he wore during training. He expressed heartbreak over the decision, feeling it betrays athletes. Despite past precedents allowing tributes, the IOC enforced special rules for Ukraine. Heraskevych's helmet honored athletes, including friends, who died in the conflict. Ukraine's president, Volodymyr Zelensky, praised Heraskevych for raising awareness about the war. The IOC cited Rule 50.2, prohibiting political demonstrations at Olympic venues.Helyszínek
