Russian high jumper Danil Lyssenko believes that a decision will soon be made to restore the All-Russian Athletics Federation (VFLA).
Earlier, World Athletics task force chief Rune Andersen said the final decision on ARAF’s restoration would be taken in 2023.
– To be honest, there was always hope for a return, I always believed that everything would be better soon. I think about it constantly and I know that everything will be fine in any case. Let’s hope this is true and nothing will change,” Lysenko told .
ARAF has been banned from World Athletics since 2015 due to a huge doping scandal. From then on, Russian athletes could participate in international competitions only after obtaining neutral status.
On March 1, 2022, World Athletics banned Russian and Belarusian athletes from participating in international competitions.
