“We are looking for ways to achieve our unifying mission in consultation with the National Federations.
Our mission is to unite, as many world leaders have emphasized.
We are looking for ways to return to a unifying mission and prevent sport from being completely politicized,” Bach said at a press conference.
Recall that the IOC recommended that sports organizations remove the Russians from the competition because of the situation in Ukraine.
Most federations followed the recommendations.
At the G20 summit, the head of the IOC, Thomas Bach, said that all countries should take part in the Olympic Games, including - and even in particular - those in conflict.
Earlier, Bach announced the need to extend sanctions against Russian athletes.
