Ski-Alpinist Prokhorova received an icon in the form of a heart from the president of the IOC Bach
Russian Ski-Alpinist Varvara Prokhorova in her Telegram channel spoke about the gift that the president of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) Thomas Bach made her.
“Today I met Mr. Thomas at breakfast! What if I can discuss the fate of our sport, ”the athlete wrote. She added that Bach gave her a valentine icon with Olympic rings.
On February 26, it became known that Bach resigned from the post of member of the IOC after 34 years of work. She will enter into force after June 23.
Bach has been held by the head of the IOC since September 2013. In March 2025, the elections of his successor will be held.
Since the end of February 2022, most Russian athletes have been suspended from international tournaments on the recommendation of the IOC. In December 2024, the International Ski-Alpinism Federation (ISMF) issued licenses to five Russians to participate in competitions in neutral status.
