“We await World Aquatics’ reaction to the IOC’s statement” – Druzhinin

President of the Russian Diving Federation Stanislav Druzhinin said that after the statement from the International Olympic Committee, the response and concrete actions from World Aquatics are important.

Earlier, the IOC said it would consider the possibility of admitting Russian and Belarusian athletes to world starts in a neutral status, who have not actively supported the NWO. In most sports, against the background of the situation in Ukraine, Russian athletes were deprived of the opportunity to participate in international tournaments.

— According to the statement of the IOC, which was published today, we are certainly satisfied with the approval of the idea of ​​inviting our athletes to Asian competitions. In the meantime, we are awaiting details after this statement and a reaction from World Aquatics,” Druzhinin told .
