The Artistic Gymnastics Federation of Russia (AGFR; Russian: Федерация спортивной гимнастики России) is the governing body of gymnastics in Russia.[1] It is a member federation of both the European Union of Gymnastics[2] and the International Gymnastics Federation.[3]
After the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, the International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) barred Russian athletes and officials, including judges.[4] It also announced that "all FIG World Cup and World Challenge Cup events planned to take place in Russia ... are cancelled, and no other FIG events will be allocated to Russia ... until further notice." FIG also banned the Russian flag and anthem at its events.[5] European Gymnastics announced in March 2022 that no athletes, officials, and judges from the Russian Gymnastics Federation can participate in any European Gymnastics events, that no European Gymnastics authorities from Russia can pursue their functions, and that European Gymnastics had removed from its calendar all events allocated to Russia and would not allocate any future events to Russia.[6][7][8]
