Athletistic/ Others. The head of the Russian Olympic Committee, Stanislav Pozdnyakov, has been prematurely dismissed as president of the European Fencing Confederation. This decision was taken by the congress of the organization. Pozdnyakov spoke about it.

– It is sad that the hysteria in Europe has led to a “cancellation culture” of everything Russian, even in such a noble sport as fencing. In a very short time, much more prominent compatriots fell victim to similar attacks, who also did not want to “cancel” Russia in themselves,” Pozdnyakov wrote on his Telegram channel.
