The Price of Dignity

Ukrainian skeleton racer Vladyslav Heraskevych’s memory helmet shows the faces of Ukrainian athletes and coaches killed by Russia’s war. The International Olympic Committee has disqualified him for wearing it – undermining its own reputation. This decision is a shameful betrayal of Olympic values.

More than 650 Ukrainian athletes and coaches have lost their lives because of Russia’s war. Remembering them is an act of dignity and courage.
