Norway has decided to deny visas to Russian athletes for competitions on its territory, following Finland's similar stance. The Norwegian government instructed immigration services to refuse entry to professional athletes from Russia and Belarus. This decision reflects concerns about the close ties between elite Russian sports and the government amid the ongoing war in Ukraine. Finland also announced a visa ban for Russian athletes, emphasizing they have no place in the country. Both nations are preparing for upcoming international sporting events while expressing opposition to Russia's reintegration into sports. Sweden has called for stricter EU visa regulations for athletes from these countries.
