The Board of European Aquatics (LEN) would like to express our strong support and solidarity with Ukraine’s athletes in these unprecedented times.
LEN believes in the spirit of sport,
which brings nations together in a peaceful way, and strongly condemns all acts
of violence. We urge all parties to work quickly on securing a diplomatic resolution
to the crisis. LEN will now discuss, in a democratic manner, the best way to
support Aquatics in this region.
In particular, all competitions,
including the Women’s Euro League Quarter-final game, scheduled in Russia are
postponed to a date and place to be confirmed.
LEN is working in close contact with
representatives of the Ukraine Swimming Federation to ensure they have the
necessary support.
Discussions about how to manage the
impact of the crisis on upcoming competitions has been added to the agenda for
discussion at the next LEN Bureau meeting.
