The head of the International Hockey Federation (IIHF), Luc Tardif, wished Russian teams to return to international tournaments in the coming year.
“I wish that in 2024 the entire IIHF family will be fully assembled again. This includes the return of the Russian Hockey Federation to our competitions. In addition, I wish peace throughout the world,” said the head of the international hockey organization.
Let us recall that in February 2022, after the start of the Russian special operation in Ukraine, the IIHF suspended Russian and Belarusian teams from participating in international competitions. The suspension was extended in 2023 through the 2023/24 season.
