The 2022 Winter Paralympics kick off in Beijing on Friday. 71 players from Russia and 12 players from Belarus have been sent back from this prestigious tournament.
At the same time, the Ukrainian team was able to reach here with great difficulty in the middle of the war situation. The head of the Ukrainian delegation, Valery, said that it is a miracle that we have reached the Paralympics.
The organizers of the Paralympics had initially allowed players from Russia and Belarus to take part in the Beijing Games, but changed their decision a day before the opening ceremony, throwing players from both countries out of the competition.
