Athletes can be returned to competition
National Fencing Federation of Ukraine made an official statement to International Fencing Federation (FIE).
In its appeal, the NFFU draws attention to the fact that the majority of Russian athletes continue to silently observe military terrorism by the Russian Federation and calls on the FIE to extend the ban for representatives of Russia and Belarus. The full text of the statement can be read Here.
The decision on the possible admission or continuation of the ban for fencers from the Russian Federation and the Republic of Belarus will be made at the next Congress of the International Fencing Federation, which will be held on March 10.
Recall that recently Mikhail Illyashev became the new president of the Ukrainian Fencing Federation. The participants of the extraordinary conference of the FFU unanimously elected Ilyashev as the new head of the organization. He will hold this position for the next four years.
