Fis chose to cancel this weekend's competitions in the Skricross World Cup, which should have been decided in Russia.
In addition, the federation has decided not to hold any competitions in Russia this season.
The Swedish national team skier Johanna Hagström thinks that the decision is good.
- I did not want to go to Russia now.
It's a strange situation with what's happening in the world.
It felt a little strange today when we trained, says Hagström to SVT Sport.
"About time"
However, she admits that it took a long time for Fis to make a decision.
- It is clear that they were very late and we had to put our foot down.
I think Fis could have put his foot down first.
But now they did it in the end, which is good.
Maja Dahlqvist also welcomes Fi's choice to cancel the competitions in Russia.
- I thought it was time.
We had decided before that we do not want to go.
Good that Fis also marks.
But we had at least made the decision before.
Dahlqvist does not think it will be strange to be placed side by side with the Russian riders in connection with the competitions.
- You have to distinguish between them and their country.
They should not have to take shit for something they have nothing to do with.
Now I do not know them very well, but they have not hurt anyone.
"Crisis management problem"
The owner Marcus Grate sends a boot to Fis.
- It is obvious that there will be no competition there.
I do not think anyone would have gone there voluntarily.
It took a little too long for Fis.
They obviously have some problems with crisis management.
- It is not a country you want to go and support that goes to war in 2022. It is not a country we want to have and do with, Grate says about Russia.
