Minister of Youth and Sports Matvii Bidnyi said this during a televised broadcast, according to Ukrinform. "Canada and Czechia refuse to host Russians, while representatives of eight countries are already refusing to take to the ice with them... These are Czechia, Finland, Denmark, France, Sweden, Norway, Switzerland, and Latvia. I believe this list will continue to grow," Bidnyi said. According to him, Ukraine is working to prevent Russians from participating in international sporting competitions not only through sports federations but also by engaging the governments of other countries. The minister also added that a conversation with his German counterpart is scheduled for this week.
