Most of the domestic stars are eagerly awaiting the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games in Sochi and are trying to support our athletes. But there are also those who consider the upcoming Olympics not the most suitable event for today's Russia. TV presenter Ksenia Sobchak called the Olympics "immoral". However, this is quite in the spirit of a scandalous celebrity.

According to Xenia, organizing the Olympic Games in a country where health care and education systems leave much to be desired is not the most sensible. But Sobchak believes that this is quite in the "Russian spirit."

“Our Olympics is a hymn to Russian character. Driving an expensive car, but not having money for a gas station, buying Chanel bags, but living in a rented 30-meter apartment, having dinner in an expensive restaurant, and then starving for a week … I can't say for every citizen of Russia, but this Olympics is for me personally need not. I believe that in a country without normal medicine, health care systems and education, it is immoral to arrange such "salutes" in the form of the Olympics, "Starhit quotes the star.

In addition to problems with medicine, Ksenia complained about the lack of training for worthy athletes. “In any normal society, the Olympics are a kind of crown of the country's progress. We must first educate athletes - so that not only Plushenko suffers for the whole sport. I respect him very much, he is a great hero. But when I was born, he skated, and I will die, and he will still ride to the Olympics. It's good that he drives, it's bad that there is no one else. A couple of names for the whole country. Now here's Maxim Kovtun. We do not have normal sports facilities for children, the sports infrastructure has been destroyed. But we have the Olympics. This is some kind of nonsense."

The TV presenter is dissatisfied with the construction of the Olympic facilities, according to her, “the local residents had only one torment from the construction site: there was no hot water, then the electricity would be cut off”. “But the main thing is that all these objects, built in a terrible haste, will then remain ownerless. We do not have the infrastructure to support all this,”explains Ksenia.

In the end, Sobchak even decided to give up the trip to the Olympics. “I wanted to attend the opening, but the work schedule will not allow it. I won't watch it on TV. I am one of those people who do not watch sports, but are engaged in it. Husband Maxim, I think, too. He loves football, but unfortunately he is not in the winter program."
