Russian karate athletes expelled from Poland ahead of world championship
Original: карате
Polish authorities expelled a group of Russian karate athletes after it emerged they had attempted to enter the country on visas issued by other countries in order to take part in a world championship. The incident highlights continued restrictions on Russian athletes competing internationally, with Russian media framing the expulsion as part of broader Western barriers to Russian participation in sport.
Why now: The expulsion of Russian athletes from a European host country amid ongoing disputes over their eligibility in international sport is drawing attention in Russia.
