President of the All-Russian Swimming Federation Vladimir Salnikov believes that the question of the admission of Russians to the competitions of the International Swimming Federation (FINA) will come back as early as 2023.
Russian athletes have been suspended from participating in competitions under the auspices of the International Swimming Federation (FINA) amid the situation in Ukraine.
– Initially it was said that FINA would suspend the Russians until the end of 2022. We are mid-December now. Will decisions be made in the next few days?
“I think this issue will be pushed back to 2023,” Salnikov told .
Previously, FINA President Hussein Al-Mussalam had said that there was a possibility of Russian athletes taking part in starts under the auspices of the Asian confederation, but the decision has not yet been made, as it should be consolidated, as discussed at the Olympic summit. .
