Russia’s Return to Olympic Games | US News
Description
Russia’s athletes may soon compete under their own flag at the 2028 LA Olympics, after the IOC lifted its suspension — but with strict conditions. Following a missile strike in Kyiv, the IOC is monitoring Russia’s compliance with Ukraine neutrality pledges while insisting sports must stay separate from politics. Doping controls remain tight, especially after the Sochi 2014 scandal. This marks a potential shift, following Paralympians’ earlier return under the Russian flag — signaling a cautious, evolving stance from the IOC.
