At the Aeon Cup World Championship in Japan, the team from the 'Derugina School' of Ukraine amazed the audience with their confidence and victory. Gymnasts Taisiya Onofriychuk, Polina Karika, and Lyubov Horaschenko refused to shake hands with Russian athletes at the awards ceremony.However, in light of the situation regarding Russia's aggression against Ukraine, Russian freestyle skier Anastasia Tatalina demands the right to participate in the 2026 Olympic Games.
