00:04Siamo qui a Kiev, Vladislav è ritornato al nostro paese in Ucraina, ci mostra il ciasco
00:11che è stato al cuore di tutta la polemica degli ultimi giorni e ci ha sottolineato in
00:20questa sede qui al Media Center di Kiev che in Italia ha avuto un grande sostegno, si
00:26ha sentito davvero accompagnato in tutta questa vicenda.
00:31Forza Italia e slava Ucraina!
00:33Grazie.
00:35Grazie.
00:35Grazie.
00:35Grazie.
00:36Grazie.
00:37Grazie.
00:38Grazie.
00:41Grazie.
00:44So, I also read some statements from Mr. Rajkov, head of Russian Paralympic Committee.
00:49He also told that more than in Russian media it was information that more than 300 people
00:57who were injured from already this full-scale war in Ukraine.
01:01They became part of the Paralympic teams and national teams.
01:06And also on request of Ukrainian media, Mr. Craig Spence, he is spokesman of International
01:13Paralympic Committee.
01:14He also told that they don't have any verification process because they don't have any special rules
01:21for the satellites.
01:22So, it's an option.
01:25We don't know.
01:27We don't know.
01:28We don't know if the satellites were on the front line or not.
01:31And even if they were on the front line, it makes no difference for the Paralympic Committee.
01:36So, yes, we can end up in situation when people who were killing Ukrainians yesterday
01:42on the front line, today they continue to kill Ukrainians by spreading Russian propaganda.
01:48So, yes, I see logic and I apparently got it.
01:52You're talking about the reaction in Italy.
01:54Again, we are now on record.
01:56Is there any specificity to the record?
02:01Yeah, I saw Parliament statement and a deputy from Parliament.
02:07But it was huge.
02:09I remember also a guy on a press conference in Milano and he was asking me about Italy and
02:15about support of people.
02:16And, but for me, I think most memorable it was these uploads on an opening ceremony.
02:21And I think it's also important that it was not, it was not this qualification scandal
02:26yet and everything.
02:27So, people just were supporting.
02:28And I think it was for me like very important that we don't have like some special situation
02:33to do.
02:33It was just, just purely, purely act to support us on opening ceremony.
02:40And I think it was, it was a great moment.
02:42Last question.
02:43Let me ask, when did you decide to put this picture?
02:47It was around three, four weeks prior Olympics.
02:50And what was the element issue to do?
02:53What was the fact to it?
02:55It was not the first time when I tried to honor all the people who was, who died during
03:02during the last four years.
03:03First time it was in season 24-25 when I put on my sled quote of great person, Petro
03:12Petrchenko.
03:13And it was a quote in translation is a little bit hard, but all beautiful people remain optimistic.
03:20And it was his quote, but on Ukrainian, on my sled.
03:24And it's, I would say it, I was consistent, consistent on that.
03:28But when we, we got to point when, when we were preparing the Olympics, I was thinking
03:34about more, most of the supporters want also to be at some point of life, want to be Olympians.
03:44because many of them was part of the Olympics course, some of them was just want to visit
03:49it as a fence, because I knew that they supported us a lot.
03:53And I think I decided that I want to put them on a helmet.
03:58I want them to come to Olympics with me and be part of this Olympic Games.
04:02Thank you.
04:03Thank you.
04:03Thank you very much.
04:04Thank you.
04:05Thank you.
