International Fencing Federation to waive handshake rule
The International Fencing Federation has decided to cancel the mandatory handshake
FIE announced at the conference that Thursday's scandal would allow the traditional post-match handshake to be replaced by a greeting from a distance.
This will allow the Ukrainians not to get close to the Russians, even if they compete in a "neutral" status.

Und wiedermal solidarisert sich ein Sportverband mit den Tätern, statt mit den Opfern. Mit ihrer Inszenierung zeigte die Russin doch ganz genau, wie sie zum #Ukrainekrieg steht. Sie hätte statt #Kharlan disqualifiziert werden müssen, wenn die #FIE ihre eigenen Regeln zum Umgang mit russischen Sportler*innen auch nur ansatzweise ernst nimmt!

Ukrainian fencer Kharlan disqualified in 'shameful decision'
The #IOC and the #FIE for permitting Russians and Belarusians to compete again, albeit as neutral athletes. Fencing was the first sport to open their doors in March.

This is the instagram account of an allegedly "neutral" Russian athlete Anna Smirnova.

The Fencing Federation of Norway will not send its athletes to tournaments due to the admission of Russians and Belarusians to them — an official statement.
In addition, Norway also announced that they would not hold competitions under the auspices of the International Fencing Federation (FIE) on the country's territory.

Alisher Usmanov gebürtiger Usbeke ist ein Oligarch, der von der EU mit Sanktionen belegt wurde. Er war aber auch bis 1. März Vorsitzender des Welt-Fechtverbandes und sponsorte diesen mit 5,3 Millionen Euro. Da wundert es nicht, dass der #FIE jetzt russische und belarusdische Sport’er wieder zu Wettkämpfen zulässt. Er preschte somit am IOC vorbei. Auch im FIE Vorstand: Putins Freund Thomas Bach. #BoykottRussia
@drcaberry Dr. Berry you don't remember me but I believe we met at an #FIE a few years ago and talked a lot about robotics, right?
