MOSCOW (INP) – Russia has come out in support of China over its diplomatic boycott of the Winter Olympics, with the chairman of the Olympic Committee calling the diplomatic boycott “incomprehensible.”
The United States, Australia, Canada and the United Kingdom have announced that they will not send a diplomatic delegation to the Winter Olympics, to which the head of Russia’s Olympic Committee responded by saying We will not support the boycott announcement. He added that this was a “very foolish act”. Earlier, France had also refused to support the US campaign for a diplomatic boycott of China.
