"As you can see, today was a very tough and important day. What happened has brought up a lot of questions but also has provided some answers. We have found out that the country that terrorises our state, our people, and our families, is also terrorising sports.
What happened today is what had to happen. I didn’t want to shake this athlete’s hand; I followed my heart...
...Peace can’t be forced on anyone. Especially Ukrainians. Never. No handshakes. Never. That’s how it’ll always be.

Its going to be a lot of years before any Ukrainian will even consider shaking a Russian's hand after what Russia is diong to them.
