FIFA Bans Russia From World Cup & Other Competitions Due to Ukraine War

Following the initial decisions adopted by the FIFA Council and the UEFA Executive Committee, which envisaged the adoption of additional measures, FIFA and UEFA have today decided together that all Russian teams, whether national representative teams or club teams, shall be suspended from participation in both FIFA and UEFA competitions until further notice.

These decisions were adopted today by the Bureau of the FIFA Council and the Executive Committee of UEFA, respectively the highest decision-making bodies of both institutions on such urgent matters.

Football is fully united here and in full solidarity with all the people affected in Ukraine. Both Presidents hope that the situation in Ukraine will improve significantly and rapidly so that football can again be a vector for unity and peace amongst people.

Following the decision of FIFA and UEFA, the Russian national team will not be allowed to take part in any footballing activities while the Russian football clubs currently participating in major UEFA tournaments have been banned from the competition altogether. The ban has been put in place indefinitely.
