Kamila Valieva has neutral athlete status revoked International Skating Union

The International Skating Union (ISU) has revoked the neutral athlete status of Russian figure skater Kamila Valieva. This decision follows a period of scrutiny regarding the participation of Russian and Belarusian competitors in international skating events.

The Ukrainian Figure Skating Federation (UFSF) recently formally requested that the ISU re-evaluate its policies concerning the readmission of athletes from Russia and Belarus as individual neutral competitors. The revocation marks a significant shift in the ISU's stance regarding the eligibility of these athletes amid ongoing international tensions.
