Gashki called on IIHF not to lie due to the removal of the Russian Federation of the Russian Federation in hockey
Olympic champion, two -time holder of the Stanley Czech Czech Czech Dominic Hashkayki commented on the decision of the International Hockey Federation (IIHF) to remove the national teams of Russia and Belarus from participating in the World Cup – 2026. He accused the federation of lies and called the real reason for the detachment.
He was glad that in the next season “International Hockey will be left without Russians and Belarusians” because this would not allow “advertising” a special military operation (SV) in Ukraine and save a lot of lives. At the same time, Hashka believes that the official reason for this decision is the inability to guarantee security – complete lie.
IIHF, stop lying people! There is only one reason why the Russians are not allowed to participate in competitions. If these hockey players took part, the competition would become a huge advertisement for the Russian special operation!

In Russia, IIHF was considered by a profane organization
The prevention of the Russian national team for the World Cup-2026 became known on February 4. The decision to admit the team for the Olympics-2026 will be made by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) after the election of the president of the organization.
Two -time Olympic champion Alexander Kozhevnikov, commenting on the decision of the International Hockey Federation to prevent the Russian national team for the 2026 World Cup, said that IIHF is a pro -phasist organization. “Everything was known in advance,” he said.
Materials on the topic:
In turn, the two -time Olympic champion and State Duma deputy Vyacheslav Fetisov called the decision expected, while noting that “we will return in the future.” “You need to return only with a anthem and a flag, and not go about the occasion. Because this is the Russian national team, she does not need handouts, ”Fetisov said.
FHR called the condition for the allowance of the Russian national team to the World Cup-2026
The Russian Hockey Federation (FHR) indicated that this could happen in case of its end in Ukraine. In addition, the FCH will have the opportunity to challenge the IIHF decision on removal from the World Cup-2026 after the end of the world championship of 2025.
The head of the Swedish hockey federation Anders Larson, meanwhile, supported the IIHF decision. He stated that measures are absolutely necessary in this situation, and he is pleased to know the conditions for the World Cup next season.
