“
This was stated by the President of the Federation of Rowing Sports of Russia Alexei Svirin.
According to Svirin, the Polish organizers of Euro-2025 set up a special condition for them for participation.
The Russians had to sign a declaration in which they condemned the war, which was unleashed by the aggressor country in Ukraine, did not support the state policy of Russia and Belarus and their leaders. Athletes refused to do so, and therefore they will not be admitted to the European Championships.
“At the moment, we will not be able to speak in Krushvice. The Polish Rowing Association as the organizer of the competition has set additional conditions that we cannot go to.
She wants all our athletes who planned to speak at the championships of Europe, signed declarations that should indicate that they did not receive Russian state funding, as well as sponsorship funds from companies or individuals related to the Russian Federation, “Svirin said.
The European Rowing Championship will be held in Polish Krushwice on May 24-25.
Recall that in April, as a result of Russian shelling on the Dnieper, the rowing base was damaged.
