Alisher Usmanov Quotes
I personally view as very important such ideas as people’s aspiration for perfection and unification, since only a peaceful competition forms the noble basis for the Olympic movement. This is as relevant as ever in the modern world, which opens unlimited opportunities for people, but at the same time is being torn by conflicts, contradictions and standoffs. However, I am an optimist and I strongly believe in the bright future of the international Olympic movement.
