The IOC will not impose sanctions against the USA and Israel amid the escalation in the Middle East
The committee stated that sports should remain neutral even during conflicts. However, despite statements about violating the Olympic truce, no restrictions have been announced against the USA and Israel.
After the start of the special military operation in 2022, sanctions against Russia were imposed almost immediately: athletes were allowed to compete only in a neutral status and without national symbols.
