IOC provisionally lifts suspension of Russian Olympic Committee ahead of LA 2028.
The International Olympic Committee provisionally lifted its suspension of the Russian Olympic Committee on July 7, 2026, allowing Russian athletes to compete in international competitions including qualifiers for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics. The IOC stated the ROC no longer includes regional sports organizations from occupied Ukrainian territories, the condition that triggered the October 2023 suspension. The IOC has not yet decided whether Russian athletes may compete under their national flag or anthem.
