Kramer urged to allow Russian skiers to participate in international competitions

former coach Russian team Markus Kramer told NRK that Russian skiers should be allowed to participate in international competitions.

– My opinion is that they should be allowed to compete. Sport and politics should be separated, but as we have seen many times, it does not work. It is also difficult to understand that some sports, such as tennis, can be played, while others cannot. Without the Russian athletes, it will be the “show of one nation”. It’s not good for the sport,” Kramer said.

The International Ski Federation (FIS) in March suspended Russians from participating in competitions under its auspices until the end of the 2021/22 season due to the situation in Ukraine.
