The European Equestrian Federation (EEF) has confirmed that it does not support allowing Russian and Belarusian athletes to take part in international competitions under a neutral status.
This stance was voiced following the FEI Board’s decision regarding the potential participation of athletes from Russia and Belarus as neutral competitors.
It is worth recalling that earlier, the Nordic and Baltic national federations — Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Latvia, Lithuania, Norway, and Sweden — expressed their solidarity with Ukraine by issuing a joint statement at the FEI General Assembly in Hong Kong.
We are sincerely grateful to our international partners for their consistency, principled stance, and support for Ukraine.
Together, we are stronger.
