Give international matches to Russian players

Stanislav Pozdnikov, President of the Russian Olympic Committee, said that there is a growing opinion that Russian athletes should be allowed to compete again in international competitions.

He said this after attending the general meeting of the National Olympic Committee Association.

General Secretary of the Belarusian Olympic Committee Senya Sankovich also stated that the opinion is coming forward that athletes should not be punished due to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

Although some European Union countries, the British Olympic Committee, South Korea, Russia and Belarus expressed their opposition to the participation of the General Assembly, several countries including Sri Lanka said that the players should not be punished due to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the opportunity for Russian and Belarusian players to participate in international competitions again. Foreign media reported that it was proposed in the General Assembly meeting that it should be given.
