TOKYO ? Kristina Timanovskaya, the Belarusian Olympic sprinter who sought p=
rotection at a Tokyo airport as her nation tried to forcibly send her home =
from the Summer Games, has been offered asylum in Poland.=20
Ms. Timanovskaya, 24, entered the Polish Embassy in Tokyo on Monday and wil=
l fly to Warsaw on Wednesday, according to Alexander Opeikin, the executive=
director of the Belarusian Sports Solidarity Fund, a group that opposes th=
e Belarusian government.=20
Marcin Przydacz, the deputy foreign minister of Poland, confirmed on Twitte=
r that Ms. Timanovskaya had received a humanitarian visa.=20
Ms. Timanovskaya had said she feared for her safety in Belarus after she cr=
iticized her coaches and the country?s national committee for registering h=
er for a relay event for which she had not trained.=20
She had originally been scheduled to run a heat of the 200 meters, one of h=
er regular races, on Monday but instead spent the day seeking a new country=
in which to settle.=20
?She is OK. She?s a little bit disappointed, because she wanted to continue=
in the Olympic Games,? Mr. Opeikin, who has been in contact with Ms. Timan=
ovskaya since the events unfolded on Sunday, said by telephone.=20
?She?s disappointed she couldn?t compete in the 200 meters today, but she u=
nderstands the whole situation, she understands her rights, she understands=
the deep violations of her rights as an athlete, of her human rights,? he =
said. ?She needs to tell the whole world about this situation.?
The asylum offer capped nearly 24 hours of drama at the Olympics, where Ms.=
Timanovskaya had placed fourth in her heat in the 100 meters on Friday. Sh=
e then said on Instagram that her coaches had informed her at the last minu=
te that she would have to run the 4x400-meter relay in place of a team memb=
er who had not taken enough antidoping tests to qualify for the event.=20
Although her criticisms were about athletic decisions, Ms. Timanovskaya had=
good reason to fear that she would be treated as a political dissident in =
Belarus.=20
The chairman of the country?s national Olympic committee is the eldest son =
of Aleksandr G. Lukashenko, the strongman leader who has held power in Bela=
rus for 27 years. He has long sought to stifle any dissent, including with =
a brutal crackdown that began a year ago after a disputed presidential elec=
