The decision, made by the IOC Executive Board, opens the door for Belarusian competitors to participate fully in international sporting events.\n\nThe IOC's Executive Board stated it will no longer recommend imposing any limitations on the participation of Belarusian athletes. This change applies to both individual competitors and national teams across all sports. The move effectively reverses guidance that had been in place since early 2022.\n\nSpecifically, the IOC has withdrawn the recommended participation conditions that were issued on February 28, 2022, and later updated on March 28, 2023. These earlier guidelines had included various protective measures and restrictions affecting Belarusian sportspeople and their ability to compete on the global stage.\n\nThe new recommendation from the IOC Executive Board means that international sports federations and organizers of international sporting events are now free to allow Belarusian athletes and teams to enter their competitions without the previously advised limitations. This provides a clear pathway for Belarus to re-engage more fully in the international sporting community.\n\nThis decision marks a notable change in the landscape for Belarusian sports, which had faced significant barriers to participation in many major events following the initial recommendations made over two years ago. The lifting of these restrictions is expected to have a wide-ranging impact across numerous sports disciplines.\n\nThe announcement was made through the official press service of the International Olympic Committee, confirming the board's decision to remove the specific conditions and protective measures that had governed Belarusian participation. The policy update applies universally to all international federations and event organizers under the IOC's umbrella.\n\nBased on reporting from Чемпионат.com.","news","The International Olympic Committee has officially recommended removing all restrictions on Belarusian athletes, allowing them to compete in both individual and team events at international competitions.","327837931551068161","0","2026-05-07T13:50:22Z","ioc-lifts-restrictions-on-belarusian-athletes-for-international-competitions","Championat","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.championat.com\u002Fother\u002Fnews-6459744-mok-rekomendoval-otmenit-ogranicheniya-dlya-belorusskih-sportsmenov.html","326257664642256896","Belarus",[54,57,58,59,60,61,62,63],"326257700071542784","326222707169431552","326257539962376192","326257545754710016","326257554411753472","326257556324356096","326257613643714560",[55,65,66,67,68,69,70,71],"Olympic","Anderlecht","Como","Newcastle","Newcastle Jets","Newells Old Boys","Hassania Agadir","IOC Lifts Restrictions on Belarusian Athletes for International Competitions",[74,93,106,126],{"awayTeamId":-1,"awayTeamName":-1,"body":-1,"category":46,"excerpt":75,"homeTeamId":-1,"homeTeamName":-1,"id":76,"leagueId":49,"leagueName":21,"matchId":49,"matchName":21,"publishedAt":77,"slug":78,"sourceName":52,"sourceURL":79,"teamId":54,"teamName":55,"teamIds":80,"teamNames":86,"title":92},"Russian MP and Olympic legend Irina Rodnina says Russia will eventually achieve lifting of IOC sanctions, following the removal of restrictions on Belarusian","328241659059900417","2026-05-08T16:29:37Z","rodnina-on-belarus-sanctions-lift-russia-s-ioc-return-next","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.championat.com\u002Ffigureskating\u002Fnews-6461092-pridet-i-nashe-vremya-rodnina-o-snyatii-ogranichenij-s-belorusskih-sportsmenov.html",[54,57,81,58,82,83,84,85],"326257796423094272","326255039762927616","326255042854129664","326255043911094272","326255043940454400",[55,65,87,66,88,89,90,91],"Russia","Sheriff Tiraspol","FC Urartu","Shelbourne","Banga","Rodnina on Belarus Sanctions Lift: Russia's IOC Return Next?",{"awayTeamId":-1,"awayTeamName":-1,"body":-1,"category":46,"excerpt":94,"homeTeamId":-1,"homeTeamName":-1,"id":95,"leagueId":49,"leagueName":21,"matchId":49,"matchName":21,"publishedAt":96,"slug":97,"sourceName":52,"sourceURL":98,"teamId":59,"teamName":67,"teamIds":99,"teamNames":102,"title":105},"The International Tennis Federation has upheld its suspension of Russian and Belarusian players, ignoring the IOC's call to lift restrictions on Belarusian athletes.
