Details: In particular, she posted photos on Instagram of herself wearing two T-shirts, one with the face of Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin and the word "Dickhead", and the other with "Fuck Putin" written on it.

Kornelija's friend also joined the protest, posing with her in the second photo in a T-shirt with the words "Crimea is Ukraine".

Kornelija was upset that Russian athletes were not competing under a "neutral flag", so she decided to wear a T-shirt to remind everyone of Russia's aggression against Ukraine.

Her actions were supported by her colleagues from the Lithuanian national team, and the entire national team withdrew from the competition.
