Pause operations: company temporarily curtailing operations while keeping return options open
Leave SuspensionRussian athletes have been banned from FIS competitions since 2022 following the full-scale invasion of Ukraine. “The decision to suspend Russian athletes, which was taken by the FIS Council more than three years ago, remains in force,” the statement said. “Given the unchanging external circumstances, the organization sees no reason to reconsider this decision. This applies to both the World Cup and the Olympics, as qualification for both competitions is through the FIS.”
Suspended participation of Russian and Belarusian athletes and officials to sanctioned events. In March, the FIS had banned athletes from Russia and Belarus until the end of the 2021-22 season but that suspension has now been extended into next campaign. The International Ski Federation (FIS) has announced the extension of its ban on Russian and Belarusian athletes from its events until further notice. The International Ski Federation has upheld its policy of excluding skiers from Russia and Belarus ahead of the new season. The International Skiing Federation continued the suspension of Russian and Belarusian athletes for another year. The President of the International Ski Federation (FIS), Johann Elias, supported the option of returning Russian and Belarusian athletes to the competition in neutral status.
