Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a decree on Monday to shelve the planned hosting of the "Friendship Games", a big multi-sports event that the International Olympic Committee had condemned as a purely political project.
Russia announced last year that it planned to relaunch the competition first staged in 1984 as a Soviet-led alternative to the Los Angeles Olympics, which the USSR had boycotted in retaliation for a U.S. boycott of the 1980 Moscow Games.
-snip-
Putin's decree, published on an official website, left open the possibility of staging the games at some point in the future pending a "special decision of the president".

a big multi-sports event that the International Olympic Committee had condemned as a purely political project verses a project organizing a three week orgy for children of the rich and freaks of nature. The ancient Greeks started this ignoble festival of vanity.

They tried their s back in the 80’s through 2001. Anyone remember the ‘Goodwill Games’? I seem to remember that Ted Turner had something to do with it.
It was done in response to all the problems associated with the Olympics.

Almost sad, how the zeepers let their doink, not stronk village idiot do their dirty Ukie propaganda work.
Poor Maxi will vanish into thin air, when President Trump takes the little, corrupt, queer dictator behind the wood shed and puts an end to this U.S. taxpayer funded sh*t show war.
WhoTF does Zelensky think he is??
Another megalomania Napoleon??? Oh wait.....π
