British Paralympic Association Statement - IPC Decision

Beijing 2022

“We are disappointed by the International Paralympic Committee’s decision today.

We, like many participating Paralympic nations, already stated that given the magnitude of the humanitarian crisis in Ukraine we cannot see how the participation of Russia or Belarus in the Beijing 2022 Paralympic Winter Games is compatible with the objectives of the Paralympic movement.

We’ll be consulting further and reflecting on the implications for ParalympicsGB before making further comment.”
