Please Putin STOP war, please
LOL ….. “please”. Yeah, Putin listens to “please”.
He supports it
He’s probably scared of what would happen to his friends and family in Russia if he says anything bad about Putin. Look at what happened with Panarin.
@M M what happened?
INVESTIGATIVE AUDIT..LOOK IT UP PLEASE
We love you Ovi!
C’mon OVI step weak answer but he’s probably protecting family over there so understand
Ovi is very close to putin, known for having one of the legendary credit cards straight to the Russian reserve. He’s doing everything very meticulous so he’s safe as well as his family
Absolutely pathetic response, he should be ashamed of himself, take a stand and put your family on the line in Russia for change, just like the Ukrainian’s are doing now, they are very brave!
its not his business. The warr will go on without his useless opinion, he should act neutral since he is russian with lots of family over there to not risk anything.
He supports Putin, this is why he is answering like that.
You have no idea how tight of grip Russia and the government have on all its athletes abroad.
He’s terrified of what would happen to his family if he says anything against crooked politicians.
Ov was absolutely horrible in this interview! But, like he said very clearly, “I’m Russian” That about sums it up!!!
Oh give me a break.
