  1. > The Judo Federation of Ukraine writes about this: “The International Judo Federation, as usual, at the last moment admitted seven russian athletes, one of whom is an active military serviceman, to the World Junior Championship in a neutral status”

  2. Seems as if the Russian participants are deserving of an ole’-fashioned leg sweep

  3. Why are ‘neutral’ russian athletes allowed to participate in any international events?

  4. They should capture him at the tournament so they know their soldiers are free game globally.

  5. Come on Japan judo this isn’t right you know that don’t bring the world of judo into disrepute !

    You kicked putin out a while back

  6. Allowing Russia in these international sport competitions is like allowing Germany and Japan to participate in the 1940 and 44 Olympics had they not been canceled due to Germany and Japan.

  7. Will they be ‘legal targets’ while attending the event?
