“The Swedes have been supporting the Brazilians for a long time” – the head of the RBU on Brazil’s performance against Russia at the IBU Congress

President of the Russian Biathlon Union (RBU) Viktor Maygurov told that the speech of the representative of Brazil during the IBU Congress took place at the request of other federations.

On Friday, the congress of the International Biathlon Union (IBU) decided to maintain the suspension of Russian and Belarusian athletes from international tournaments. During the meeting, representatives of Ukraine, Norway, Poland and Brazil spoke out against the Russians.

– I’m not surprised. The Swedes have long supported the Brazilian federation, inviting them to train for free. Well, in addition this person is himself Swedish. I think he was asked – he spoke, – said Maygurov.

The Brazilian representative at the congress was the head of the Brazilian Winter Sports Confederation, Carl Anders Petterson.
