The International Olympic Committee (IOC) doubled down on its stance against Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on Friday, urging the different governing sports bodies to cancel or move international sporting events out of Russia and that its flag and Belarusian flag not be displayed. 

The IOC Executive Board (EB) issued a statement reminding all International Sports Federations that Russia’s recent attacks on Ukraine are a "breach of the Olympic Truce" which was previously agreed on by 193 members of the United Nations back in December and was set to last until seven days after the conclusion of the Paralympics in Beijing later next month.  

IOC CONDEMNS RUSSIA FOR ‘BREAK OF THE OLYMPIC TRUCE’ AFTER INVASION OF UKRAINE: ‘GIVE PEACE A CHANCE’ 

"The IOC EB today urges all International Sports Federations to relocate or cancel their sports events currently planned in Russia or Belarus," the statement read. "They should take the breach of the Olympic Truce by the Russian and Belarusian governments into account and give the safety and security of the athletes absolute priority. The IOC itself has no events planned in Russia or Belarus."
