Seven countries refused to approve the calendar of the youth ice hockey championship due to the return of Russia.
At least seven countries, including Germany, refused to agree on a calendar for the 2027 World Junior Championships after the International Ice Hockey Federation reinstated the Russian team to the tournament instead of Norway. This is reported by Die Zeit.
The decision was made after the Court of Arbitration for Sport allowed Russian teams to return to international competitions.
WC-2027 for adults in Germany is also at risk. Several countries, including Finland, do not want to play against the Russians. At the same time, Canada, which will host the youth tournament, announced its intention not to issue visas to Russian hockey players.
