🎙President Vladimir Putin's statement at the state awards ceremony for Russian athletes(Moscow, April 22, 2026)
💬 I am sincerely pleased to congratulate everyone on your successes. Your performances and results are a substantial contribution to reaffirming Russia’s leading position in world sport – a strong and unshakable position, despite all the underhanded attempts to weaken it.
☝️The disgraceful – and, I would say, cowardly – politically motivated conduct of the previous leadership of the International Olympic Committee inflicted enormous damage on the Olympic movement and on the very principles of Olympism.
Selective sanctions against Russian athletes, imposed under the pretext of condemning Russia’s actions to defend our people and our interests in the context of the conflict in Ukraine, while ignoring numerous other similar tragedies and armed conflicts around the world, merely exposed the corruption and political bias of a significant part of the international sporting establishment.
👉I hope that the new leadership of the International Olympic Committee and other international sports organisations will overcome this legacy as soon as possible – a heavy and shameful legacy left by their predecessors.
I am certain that many more sporting triumphs lie ahead for you, as well as for your teammates representing a wide range of disciplines – including at the biggest international competitions – and, without fail, under our national flag and to the sound of Russia’s national anthem.
Russia is steadily returning to the world’s sporting arenas, and doing so with dignity. Last season, our swimmers, fencers, canoeists, gymnasts, judokas and wrestlers all delivered brilliant victories.
The truly special – indeed unique, without any exaggeration – achievement was the triumph of Russia’s Paralympians in Milan. As you know, they secured third place in the overall standings with a team that was several times smaller than those of their main rivals. This was an outstanding result. These victories were won not by numbers, but by skill, talent and the will to win.
Russia will continue to develop sport in all areas, ensuring the broadest possible opportunities for participation in elite sport, professional sport and mass sport alike, while actively promoting sport above all among children and young people. Because, as we all know well, sport is not simply about physical strength and agility – it is a way of life built on the values of health, mutual respect, and, crucially, determination and responsibility.
