Krystsina Tsimanouskaya filmed arriving at Polish embassy in Tokyo, as husband flees to Ukraine
The Belarus Olympic athlete Krystsina Tsimanouskaya has reportedly sought asylum in Poland after she was threatened with being bundled back to Minsk over her criticism of Olympic team officials.
On Monday, Tsimanouskaya’s husband, Arseniy Zdanevich, confirmed to Sky News that he had fled the country and was currently in Kyiv. “I didn’t think it would get this serious. I made the decision to leave without thinking twice,” he told the TV station.
