MOSCOW (AP) — The IOC said Tuesday that the “Olympic Athlete from Russia” name will appear on Russian athletes’ uniforms.
The IOC is working on regulations likely to ensure Russia does not feature prominently in the design that includes neutral colors.
Athletes would be prevented from displaying Russian flags in competition venues, but that prohibition is unlikely to extend to fans in the stands.
Russia will send a delegation to Switzerland on Friday to discuss details, including the uniforms.
Also Wednesday, the Russian Hockey Federation — which accepts Russians competing as neutral athletes in Pyeongchang — looked set for a dispute with the IOC over uniforms.
