Probably Putin didn’t want to pay money for the right to broadcast Olympic is one reason. The other is of course Russia can’t participate except under Olympic flag.
Haha
Lucky them, I don’t care about JO and it’s a pain when your country is receiving it
didn’t the Oplympics come from the same scumbags who invented democracy?
Lol cause all their athletes died in kharkiv he doesnt want the nation to see russia competing in track in field with a bunch of left over amputees.
Why would Russians want to watch a bunch of athletes compete without using performance enhancing drugs?
Yeah, not to rub salt on their wounds./j
Putin on the Fast track to being the next North Korea
I mean on the bright side Putin might host para olympic games of his own with all those cripples from Avdiivka and so on. Good alternative!
Russia will say the West isn’t allowing them to air it and that “Russia” is leading the medal tally even though Russia isn’t competing.
Not surprising. It would be an opportunity for anti-war messages and pro-Ukraine sentiment to permeate Russian televisions.
Face saving pussies, worse than the Chinese.
Putin will pretend it’s not happening.
There will be Russians there just not under the Russian flag I mean Russia caused this on themselves with doping controls being weak and the Ukraine war idk if the ioc was pressured to do something as well
We’ve been killing it in the special Olympics though. Now we’ll have some competition.
Russia can’t afford to pay for the broadcast rights, I guess.
Easier to claim they won all the events.
Well, they would do great in Paralympics!
Who tf cares. War criminals all of them
Olympics were always great for defections.
They can always broadcast Swan Lake instead.
Of course not Putin’s war would reach far and wide and he can’t have that.
Like, if anybody cares. I’d be happy if russia would close itself and wont let anyone in and out. And deal with its inside problems and not attack neighboring countries.
Cheating china will be there
Sooo…anyone knows how the brics olympics went? 😀
Aren’t media rights part of sanctions and this the Russian excuse?
Let’s dust off those old Soviet era propaganda videos, and broadcast them 24 seven the people will love them. They won’t even notice that there are no Olympics on the TV.
They can’t use this one start a war.
Pathetic losers.
If they were ok with State organized juicing of their athletes, (enough to actually beat the Norwegians in cross country skiing, lmao), they might as well just fake the broadcast, and pretend that they won everything.
Cool story, bro.
hard to sell propaganda when the world is booing your athletes
lol They can’t afford the licensing fee… brokeass, brokeass putin going to hold their own olympics only no gold or silver. First and second place are now beets and vodka.
Tbh does anybody still watch the olympics? Feels like it died a while back…nobody cares anymore
As has been stated already, they’re basically not in it so there’s nothing to show.
Important to note that this has nothing to do with Ukraine and the fact that Russia cannot help but to cheat during the Olympics in consistent and brazen manner.
Throbbing butthurt coming out of Russia these days.
Putin trying to hide how the world feels about Russia
If they aren’t included in the list of participanting countries, what’s the point of broadcasting it?
This one is going to spicy, Putin has probably planned several attacks.
“Nobody wants us to be there. Everybody else must be wrong.”
Good. Maybe we can start to detox the IOC from Russian bribery.
Didn’t they have their own bootleg Olympics with some other countries too?
So what?
…that’s dope…
Maybe Putin can broadcast the war that he started
This seems like a lot of salty tantrum when they could just go home.
Cause they can’t afford it. LOL Price of being a political arsehole!
Russia is boycotting due to that Dutch rapist obviously.
What was his name? Trump?
