Elina Svitolina has always shown her rejection of the Russian invasion in Ukraine, but in recent months, the leading voice of the protests has been Oleksandra Oliyninkova. The young Ukrainian has not stopped showing her rejection of everything related to Russia. That is why Svitolina has thanked her for everything she is doing: "She is a very direct person and very clear with her opinions. For many of us, who have been dealing with these issues constantly for over four years, it is something that has been part of our reality for a long time," lamented the tennis player in the press conference after her advancement to the round of 16 of Roland Garros 2026.

"But she is a new player and now she wants to convey that message because she didn't have the opportunity to do so before. Personally, I support her firmness with her opinions. It is no secret that Ukraine continues to suffer constant attacks, and for us, it remains an extremely sensitive issue," Svitolina concluded.
