Russia to host first World Championships since Ukraine invasion
Original: Russia to host first sporting World Championships since invasion of Ukraine
Russia is set to host its first sporting World Championships since the 2022 invasion of Ukraine, according to a report by Yahoo Sports. The news marks a notable moment in Russian sport's gradual return to international competition after years of bans and boycotts triggered by the war, and is likely to renew debate among athletes, federations and officials over whether Russia should be welcomed back on the global stage.
Why now: Russia's readmission to hosting major international sport remains highly contested amid the ongoing war in Ukraine.
