Re: 😮 Russia banned from Winter Olympics 😮

Just read that some Russian athletes (presumably “clean” ones) may be allowed to participate.  By invitation only, they would compete under a neutral Olympic flag and the Russian National Anthem would not be played.

CNN is reporting that United States' participation is an "open question".  Nicki Haley, U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, stated that "officials are worried that the increasingly volatile situation with North Korea may endanger Americans at the Olympics."
