He released a joint statement alongside Sanda Aldass and Muna Dahouk after being selected for the IOC Refugee Olympic Team [EOR] for the 2020 Summer Games in Tokyo. "We have been dreaming of that for years and today we are living our dream. We feel that we have a great responsibility. We will represent our sport, judo, but also the entire refugee community. We are so proud. We hope that millions of refugees across the globe will want to overcome their difficulties, based on what we have achieved."[1][2]
