The exclusion of the Russian youth team from the World Hockey Championship will not become an obstacle for the return of domestic athletes to international competitions in other sports. Dmitry Peskov stated this to TASS.
"Everywhere, in all federations, the situation is different. We need to continue working with everyone."
Earlier, the IIHF reported that the Russian national team will not participate in the World Youth Championship due to the position of the Canadian authorities, who announced their refusal to issue visas to Russian hockey players.
