What this means? Russia could compete at the next Olympics / LA2028 – BUT a long way to go before Russia can compete under Russian flag (eg a full Russian Olympic squad of athletes competing under the Russian flag/colours/logos/anthem etc.) It is though a significant move towards the reintroduction of Russia into international sport. Russian Athletes have though been competing at major international events such as Paris 2024 and Milano-Cortina 2026 as ‘Neutral’ athletes. #SkySportsNews #SkySports #olympics ► For the latest developments on this story: https://qrcode.skysports.com/skysports/topstories ► For the latest transfer news: https://qrcode.skysports.com/skyspor
