Ukraine demands Russia adjust profiles of Olympic athletes

Ukraine has sent a note to organizers of the Summer Olympic Games in London to correct profiles of Russian athletes, Interfax reports.

Media reported that some Russian athletes born in Ukraine have “Russia” next to Ukrainian locations in their profiles.

Georgia has already filed a similar protest note, because two Russian athletes had their Abkhaz and South Ossetian origins stated as “Russian”.

The match between the female football teams of North Korea and Columbia in Glasgow on Wednesday was halted for 40 minutes because the screen had the flag of South Korea instead of North Korea.
