Russian tennis player Polina Kudermetova sparked outrage by posting the St. George ribbon on Instagram, which is associated with Russian aggression against Ukraine.
At the beginning of May, Kudermetova posted an image of the St. George ribbon on her Instagram, which has become a symbol of Russian aggression against Ukraine.
Ukrainian tennis players are showing commendable results at the tournament in Paris, winning tough matches. The Russian athlete evokes negative resonance with her actions by using symbolism that outrages the Ukrainian community.
