“Russia” is banned from participating - no Russian flag, no Russian anthem. The Russian athletes are not, however.

In the video, Turly explains how they got around that. The Russians claim to be representing something other than Russa???

They have been. And, true to the ban, they’re not participating. Only their “Olympic Committee” is.

Note to future athletes who are banned for using PES’s: Just have your personal sports committee participate so you can honor the ban.
