Russian Athletics Federation Takes New Action Against World Athletics

The Russian Athletics Federation (VFLA) has filed an appeal with the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) against the sanctions imposed by World Athletics. The VFLA is challenging the decisions made by World Athletics under the leadership of Sebastian Coe. The federation aims to have the sanctions lifted to allow Russian athletes to compete internationally. The Russian Athletics Federation is opposed to the current sanctions, which hinder the representation of Russian athletics on the international stage. The federation continues to engage in dialogue with international sports organizations while protecting the rights of Russian athletes and the athletics community. The VFLA is seeking to change the decisions that harm Russian athletics and undermine the principle of equality in sports, while maintaining its cooperation with World Athletics.
