OFFICIAL: IOC Ban Of Russian Teams Remains In Place In 2026
The International Olympic Committee announced on
Tuesday what had already been foreshadowed by the IIHF: The ban on
Russian teams that was in place for the Paris 2024 Summer Olympics
will remain in effect for the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan and
Cortina. As a result, there will be no teams representing
Russia at the men’s or women’s Olympic ice hockey tournaments.
