Ukraine urges cancellation of 2030 weightlifting world championship in Moscow

Original: Україна закликає скасувати чемпіонат світу-2030 із важкої атлетики в Москві Міністерство молоді та спорту України спільн

Ukraine's Ministry of Youth and Sport, together with the National Olympic Committee and the Weightlifting Federation of Ukraine, has called on the International Weightlifting Federation to revoke its decision to hold the 2030 World Weightlifting Championship in Moscow. Kyiv argues that hosting a major international sporting event in Russia is unacceptable amid the ongoing war. The appeal puts pressure on the IWF and reignites debate over Russian participation in global sport.

Why now: Ukraine is publicly challenging the choice of Moscow as host city, keeping the debate over sport and the war alive
