"Today, every time I see how Russia keeps killing
Ukrainians people, I am zone out," she wrote in an Instagram story.

Ukraine’s Elina Svitolina refused to shake hands with the players
from Russia and Belarus until the war came to an end and every Russian soldier
left their neighboring country’s land.
She ended up not having a handshake with the former world
number one Victoria Azarenka and the current top-ranked player Aryna Sabalenka in
Wimbledon.
Svitolina remained very
vocal about her stance during the event where she stated: “I already said
multiple times that until Russian troops are out of Ukraine and we take back
our territories, [I’m] not going to shake hands. So I have clear statement. I
don’t know how more clear I can be.”
