Athletistic / Others. Deputy of the State Duma, head of the Committee on Physical Culture and Sports Dmitry Svishchev said that the introduction of monetary compensation to the state for changing sports citizenship is currently being discussion.

“In my opinion, the state is fully entitled to demand compensation for the transfer of such an athlete. Because another country gets a ready-made champion, just paying him a salary and not spending a penny for its development Why the devil?

The IOC has announced that it is ready to support Ukrainian athletes who will not be allowed to compete

Therefore, our commission is again considering a draft law on state compensation for athletes who change sports citizenship,” Svishchev said as quoted by Match TV.
