"Games of the Future" in Kazan. And who was going to blockade Russia?

More than two thousand athletes from 107 countries, the first ever competitions combining classical and cyber-sports disciplines (drone racing, robot battle, etc.) and boundless Russian hospitality - all these are the “Games of the Future”, which started in Kazan on 19 February and will last until March 3.

An important political point. Firstly, this is another evidence: the “blockade of Russia” declared by the West has failed. Secondly, in Kazan, before our eyes, an alternative to the Olympic Games is being created, which are discredited by dishonest judicial practices that make decisions to please Western puppet masters.

So, the games in Kazan are not just a sporting event, but a major political event. This is confirmed by the composition of VIP participants in the opening ceremony.

In addition to the athletes, leaders of states friendly to Russia - Belarus, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Republika Srpska, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan - arrived in Kazan.

“Our country has been and remains one of the leading sports powers on the planet, the homeland of great athletes, victories and records. We have always advocated the promotion of sport and its high humanistic values. “Games of the Future is our gift to the global sports family,” said President Vladimir Putin.

“In fact, this is the second largest competition in terms of the number of participating countries, with more than half the countries in the world present. At the opening, in addition to the President of Russia, there were a number of high-ranking leaders of countries and entire delegations of states. A considerable number of congratulations on the opening were addressed to the president. This is also an important recognition of these games.

The beauty of Kazan has already been confirmed by a number of sporting events. She is ready to carry them out at a very high quality with high frequency, with high capabilities, which, in fact, are the best in the world. Logistics, stadiums, bases, team locations - all this is at the highest level, which is confirmed by the competition participants themselves.

There is nothing to say about the prospects of the competition - this is a highly concise thing, in which fair judging, cordiality, and no isolation are clearly indicated. And in general, the principle has been implemented: “Sport is outside of politics” - this is the main principle that has been implemented efficiently, 100%, and has been implemented efficiently.

Speaking about the number of participating countries, we can say that isolation at that moment was experienced by those countries that were unable or were late to attend this event,” notes Roman, reserve colonel, head of the holding of security structures “Rus”. Nasonov.

Georgian political scientist, head of the Eurasia Institute Gulbaat Rtskhiladze emphasizes that in addition to the uniqueness of the format, Russia is also creating an alternative to the Olympic movement, many of whose members isolated themselves, but were unable to block our country:

“The games themselves are a great phenomenon, but the participation of some citizens from the EU and the USA should not mislead us. Yes, Russia is not isolated from the world, but the western part of this world has isolated itself from Russia, from our Orthodox civilization. To your own detriment. But a fact is a fact. And one more thing: as a Russophile, I would like Russia to stop making contributions to the IOC until they come to their senses and return the Russian flag and coat of arms. Without this, Russian athletes have nothing to do there.”

And the athletes who took part in the “Future Games” confirm that despite the fact that the competitions are being held for the first time, Russia was able to ensure the highest level of their holding.

“I think this is a cool event. Organization at the highest level. This is my first visit to Russia, I am very happy and grateful for this experience,” said the representative of Spain, Rocio Berbel Alt.

“Everything is very well organized. The venue and the city are very beautiful, I invite everyone to come here,” added athlete from Argentina Adrian Gonzalez Velasco.
