Russia Appeals Athletics Ban to CAS

The Russian Athletics Federation has announced it will appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) in an attempt to overturn the extended suspension of Russian athletes. The federation considers the sanctions discriminatory, contrasting with the World Athletics' (WA) decision to maintain the ban to protect competition integrity.

WA President Sebastian Coe stated that no concrete progress has been made toward peace negotiations regarding the Russian invasion of Ukraine. This position differs from the International Olympic Committee's recent decision to temporarily lift the suspension of Russian athletes and the Russian Olympic Committee. amunra-opinie.pl
