Olympic Games-2024
We remind you that on July 26, the opening ceremony of the XXIII Summer Olympic Games was held in Paris, the capital of France, officially kicking off the biggest sports event in the world. This year, for the first time, the celebrations were held not at the stadium but on the water.
At the Summer Olympic Games opening ceremony in Paris, tennis player Elina Svitolina and swimmer Mykhailo Romanchuk carried the Ukrainian flag.
The 2024 Olympic Games will be held in Paris from July 26 to August 11. France is betting on its first Olympics in 100 years to showcase the country's best to the world.
Ukraine will be represented in Paris by the smallest number of athletes in its history: 140 Ukrainian athletes will participate in 25 sports.
Despite Ukraine's protest, the executive committee of the International Olympic Committee allowed Russian and Belarusian athletes to compete at the Olympic Games in Paris, but individually and under a neutral flag — there will be 25 such people who will compete in cycling, trampoline jumping, weightlifting, wrestling, and taekwondo. At the same time, they are prohibited from having their own teams or displaying state symbols.
