United World Wrestling (UWW) authorized some Russian wrestlers to participate in the European Championships though they are, as claimed by Ukrainian media and Ministry of Youth and Sports of Ukraine, not neutral and support their regime and Russian invasion of Ukraine. Abdulrashid Sadulaev and Zaur Uguev had participated in the pro-war rally and expressed their support for the Russo-Ukrainian war.[4][5] Other athletes, including Vitali Kabaloev, Anastasiia Sidelnikova, Alina Kasabieva, Nadezhda Sokolova, and Sergey Semenov showed their support of the war by their activities on social media while Artur Naifonov, Aues Gonibov, Aliaksandr Liavonchyk, and Vanesa Kaladzinskaya took part in different propaganda events organized by the Russian and Belarussian regimes.[6]
As a result, Zaur Uguev, Kurban Shiraev, David Baev, Khalid Yakhiev, Artur Naifonov, and Abdulla Kurbanov were denied a visa[7] and Abdulrashid Sadulaev was denied entry to Romania at the Bucharest airport.[8] Imam Ganishov, who managed to compete at the championships, had also visited the occupied territories of Ukraine and published photos with Russian occupying forces.[9][10]
