The one who wanted “act quickly” therefore decided to take a step back. “My decision to withdraw costs me enormously, because it seems to contradict everything I defend on a daily basis: courage, resilience, the ability to fight in hostile environments, to push the limits of possibility, and to defend equality, diversity, mixedness. However, today, I believe that my time, my energy and my values will find a better echo elsewhere, where I can be fully effective and useful. I will continue to uphold these values and act for sport, for youth, and for a fairer world.”
