Olympic Heritage: Coventry's failure, the Olympic Shop, the Riefenstahl films, the Nazi Olympics, motorways and German Olympic bids

Memory cannot be banned

Let us forget the Olympic lie of neutrality! There can be no neutrality when a murderous Russian regime is about to destroy another country and threatens World War III. That is why the Ukrainian Vladyslav Heraskevych, like all other Ukrainian athletes and Olympians, deserves our full solidarity.
