Ice hockey federation wants return of Russia as soon as possible

The head of the international ice hockey federation, Luc Tardif, said Thursday he wanted the return of Russia and Belarus to action “as soon as possible”.

The Russian and Belarusian national teams have been banned from international competition since Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022.

“We want as soon as possible the Belarus and Russians back,” Tardif told reporters on the sidelines of the ice hockey competition at the Milan-Cortina Olympics.

Tardif said he wanted them back “because first it will mean that the world will be a little bit better”.
