President of the All-Russian Swimming Federation Vladimir Salnikov told that the World Cup in Doha would be a milestone in terms of admitting Russians.
The world championship will take place in Doha in February. For many water sports other than swimmers (pool swimming), this is the last chance to qualify for the Olympics.
During the World Swimming Congress, it was announced that the decision of the special group on the possible admission of Russians would be announced before the end of 2023.
– For us, an important mark is admission to the World Cup in Doha. In view of the development of the situation, it is clear that no one will go against the IOC. If the IOC does not change its recommendations, all other decision-making prospects will vanish like smoke. There are also no details about the Asian Games – there are no conditions, there is nothing to discuss – Salnikov told .
