ISU says position on Russian disqualification remains unchanged
The International Skating Union (ISU) has assessed the information about the return of Russian figure skaters to international tournaments. This is reported by Sport24.
The ISU stated that the current decisions and positions related to the participation of Russian athletes in the organization’s events remain unchanged. It is noted that the issue of the return of Russians is not on the agenda.
Earlier it became known that the ISU allocated one quota each to Russians and Belarusians at the junior stages of the Grand Prix. At the same time, the figure skaters will be able to use the quotas if the ISU decides to admit Russia and Belarus to tournaments under its auspices.
Russian figure skaters were banned from competing in ISU tournaments in March 2022. The last major competition for Russian athletes was the 2022 Olympic Games in Beijing.
