A Russian gymnast is controversial after being on the podium after putting a tag on her sportswear indicating support for the invasion of Ukraine.
Oh!
Click The third search term is 'war support' uniforms.
Former Russian Junior Champion in 2019, Kuliak recently won a bronze medal in the parallel bar at the Gymnastics World Cup in Doha, Qatar.
The gold medal went to the Ukrainian athlete and the silver medal went to the Kazakh athlete, but the problem arose at the medal ceremony.
Kuliak appeared on his sportswear with the letter "Z" in the alphabet, which is a symbol of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
He was also engraved on military vehicles of the Russian Army and even issued a statement by the Ministry of Defense of Russia that meant victory.
Earlier, the International Gymnastics Federation banned the use of the Russian flag in competitions, so it seems that the flag was made instead of the flag.
The International Gymnastics Federation said, "We will apply for disciplinary action to the Gymnastics Ethics Foundation in response to Ivan Kuliak's shocking behavior."
Netizens commented, “Is this an expression of pride in the current situation?
It's too cruel.", "Aren't you supposed to have your medals taken away?
What are you doing in the sports arena?”
