“I don’t want to believe that the International Paralympic Committee wants to permanently suspend our membership. Let’s hope that doesn’t happen,” said Gromova.
On September 6, Russian Paralympic Committee chairman Pavel Rozhkov said that IPC representatives plan to prepare well for the plenary session in Bahrain with the aim of “permanently suspending membership in the organization”.
