In a compelling conversation with CGTN Sports Scene anchor Greg Laffradi, Umar Kremlev, the president of the International Boxing Association (IBA), underscored the vital role of sports in fostering unity and upholding core human values.
Kremlev emphasized, \"Russia and China are showing to all countries that there is a need to unite, to have traditional family values, and to maintain human values.\" Speaking as a member of Russian President Vladimir Putin's delegation in China, he highlighted the collaborative efforts between the two nations.
\"Sports is one of the most powerful ways to unite mankind,\" Kremlev added. \"Every country is striving to establish a healthy nation and hopes that its people will have discipline and order. Sports can bring exactly that – discipline and health, it is the base for every country.\"
His insights reflect the growing recognition of sports as a universal language that bridges cultural and national divides, promoting not just physical health but also societal harmony and discipline.
