LA PLAGNE, France (Reuters) - Olympic competitors risk being used as "Russian propaganda" after the International Olympic Committee's (IOC) decision to allow Russian and Belarusian athletes to compete as neutrals at the Paris Games, Ukrainian skeleton racer Vladyslav Heraskevych said on Friday.
"I don't really understand why the IOC are acting like they are blind or something like that," Heraskevych told Reuters in a video call.
