- Kuliak: ‘I don’t wish anything bad. I just showed my position’
- 20-year-old faces possibility of losing bronze and a long ban
The Russian gymnast who provoked global anger by wearing a propaganda symbol in support of the invasion of Ukraine on a World Cup podium has insisted that he has no regrets – and would even do the same again if he gets the chance.
Ivan Kuliak is facing a lengthy ban from gymnastics after attaching a letter “Z” to his leotard before receiving his bronze medal in the parallel bars in Doha on Saturday, in a competition won by Ukraine’s Illia Kovtun.
