Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Friday met with athlete Vladyslav Heraskevych who was disqualified from the Winter Olympic Games in Italy this week. Heraskevych was barred from racing after refusing a last-minute plea from the International Olympic Committee to not use a helmet that honors more than 20 athletes and coaches killed since Russia invaded Ukraine.
