USA imposed sanctions against the National Olympic Committee of Belarus

“The Belarusian NOC is included in the sanctions list,” the message says.

As noted, "The National Olympic Committee serves as a tool for Lukashenka and his closest associates to launder funds and evade sanctions."

Earlier, the official representative of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) Mark Adams answered a question about possible sanctions against the National Olympic Committee (NOC) of Belarus due to the situation with athlete Kristina Timanovskaya.
