Lithuanian Team Disqualified from International Event for Anti-Russia T-shirt Endorsed by Zelensky
Lithuanian athlete Kornelija Dudaite was disqualified from the 2024 Super Worlds fitness competition in Hungary after wearing a controversial 'Make Russia Small Again' T-shirt.
The slogan, which was popularized by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, led to Dudaite’s removal from the event for violating sportsmanship rules.
Despite Russian nationals competing under a neutral flag, Dudaite expressed her strong opposition to their presence and stood firm in her political stance.
Watch this video for the full breakdown of the incident, the reaction from Lithuania’s top politicians, and the ongoing debate over political messages in sports.
