The aggressor country continues to be disqualified by international federations around the world.
Another retaliation for the aggression against Ukraine. The Russian national bandy team has been suspended from participating in the world championship, which will be held in Sweden next year. This was reported by the International Federation for this sport.
“Russia and Belarus will not participate in the 2023 championships due to the ongoing geopolitical situation,” the statement said.
Note that the penalty is double. After all, initially the competition was supposed to take place in Russia. However, due to the widespread invasion of the Kremlin troops in Ukraine, the tournament was moved to Sweden.
It will be remembered that Russian athletes have been suspended from many sports because of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. In particular, the Russian national football team was suspended from participating in the qualification for the World Cup, which was held in Qatar. The Russians will also not see their football team at Euro 2024. UEFA has suspended the national team from participating in the tournament.
