Athletistic/Rhythmic Gymnastics. The International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) has suspended the head of the Russian Rhythmic Gymnastics Federation, Irina Viner, for 2 years, according to the FIG website.

Wiener’s public statements to the media after the Russian team’s loss at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics were deemed offensive and violated FIG rules, as was the defendants’ refusal to properly cooperate with the investigation.

Sanctions will take effect within 2 years and start the day after Russian gymnasts return to international competitions, if this happens within 5 years. If this happens later, the suspension will be reduced.
