The IOC upheld the suspension of the Russian Olympic Committee's membership.

      The International Olympic Committee has upheld the suspension of the Russian Olympic Committee's membership. This was reported by the IOC press service. It is noted that the situation with the ROC differs from that of the Belarusian NOC, which remains an active member of the IOC and adheres to the Olympic Charter. "The ROC has engaged in constructive dialogue with the IOC regarding the suspension but remains suspended. The IOC Legal Commission continues to review this case," the statement said. In February 2022, the IOC recommended suspending Belarusian and Russian athletes from international tournaments. In March 2023, the organization called for their admission under a neutral status, but only for individual competitions.
