IOC upholds sanctions against Russian sports

The representative of the International Olympic Committee (IOC), Mark Adams, during a press conference said that the organization upheld the sanctions against Russian athletes and federations.

– Sanctions against Russia remain in force – no flags, paraphernalia, anthems. No international tournaments in Russia,” Adams said at a press conference.

Earlier, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) recommended the removal of Russian athletes from international competitions due to the situation in Ukraine. Later, a number of sporting events that were supposed to take place in Russia were canceled. A number of international federations have decided to exclude Russian and Belarusian athletes from participating in competitions under their auspices.

    Degtyarev announced that the Russian side will appeal to CAS on December 10 due to the removal of biathletes from international competitions

    The Minister of Sports of the Russian Federation, Chairman of the Russian Olympic Committee Mikhail Degtyarev said that the Russian side will appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) on December 10 due to the removal of biathletes from international competitions.

    The Olympic meeting is taking place in Moscow on Wednesday. Russian biathletes were suspended from international competitions in 2022.

    — Today we are filing a complaint with CAS regarding the suspension of biathletes.

    Today in Switzerland we are filing a lawsuit against the International Biathlon Union. We consider the behavior of this organization absolutely disgraceful: blocking the access of the strongest athletes in this sport from our country, unfair competition. All arguments will be presented in court by our Swiss lawyers. I’m sure the outcome will be approximately the same as in cross-country skiing, where, as you know, we have already won and our athletes are already preparing for the World Cup stages in various ski disciplines in Europe, and I’m sure they will qualify for the Olympic Games in Milan,” the Match TV correspondent reports Degtyarev’s words.
