FIFA is experiencing some pressure from certain forces who would like to expel the RFU from the organization, said RFU Secretary General Maxim Mitrofanov.
According to him, at the moment such pressure cannot be called strong.
“They understand perfectly well that in the current situation there is pressure on the organization, including with the goal of expelling the RFU from FIFA membership, but they are ready to resist this pressure. If we start taking action on a more complex issue, they will be put under pressure so that they can make other decisions,” Mitrofanov said.
After the start of the SVO in Ukraine, FIFA and UEFA permanently suspended Russian clubs and national teams from international tournaments under their auspices. At the same time, the RFU refused to move to the Asian Football Confederation (AFC), citing the opinion of FIFA as the reason.
