The new president of the Russian Olympic Committee (ROC) will replace Stanislav Pozdnyakov on October 15, figure skating coach Tatyana Tarasova said. resignedHe may be someone who loves sports and conveys “Sports Express”.
“I didn’t know Pozdnyakov. Who could be the new president of the PRC? Someone who knows and loves sports,” Tarasova said.
Pozdnyakov has been serving since 2018. He was a four-time Olympic champion and ten-time world champion in sword fencing. Pozdnyakov is also a 13-time European champion. In 2008, he was appointed senior coach of the Russian national fencing team.
At the end of February 2022, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) issued a call to international sports federations and recommended that Russian and Belarusian athletes not be allowed to participate in any competitions. The organization decided to admit Russians and Belarusians to the 2024 Olympic Games as neutral athletes at the end of 2023. To participate, they had to meet a series of requirements and qualify. Medals of Russians and Belarusians were not taken into account in the unofficial medal tally.
Previously Pozdnyakov named Russian tennis players who participated in the Olympics as a “team of foreign agents”.
