Athletistic/ Others. Recently, many Russian athletes have been suspended from participating in international competitions. This applies in particular to representatives of water sports. The admission of these Russians to the competition will be considered this year, but later. This was announced by the head of World Aquatics Hussein Al-Mussalam.
– World Aquatics had a specific position on this issue – we did not invite Russians and Belarusians. In April, I asked the Bureau to authorize Maureen Cruz to chair the working group. She and her team are doing a great job, a lot has been done and I am grateful to them.
They’re asking for stakeholder input, they’re asking for athlete input on this, many have expressed it, and if they haven’t spoken to the task force, I recommend that they do, because it’s important to hear as much input as possible on this issue. The working group will draw conclusions and report back later this year,” Match TV quoted Al-Musallam as saying.
