It has everything we hope to share with our athletes: world-class facilities, experience in hosting events at the highest level and an integrated approach to water sports,” said the head of the federation, Hussein al-Musallam.
Kazan was announced as the venue for the World Aquatics Championships in July 2019 at a conference in Korea. Competitions were to be held in six water sports: swimming, diving, open water swimming, synchronized swimming, water polo, high diving.
In March, World Aquatics, as part of the sanctions due to the military operation in Ukraine, banned athletes from Russia from competing.
