Following the European Veterans Fencing Congress, EVF confirms that the ban on Russian and Belarusian Fencers will continue to apply for the forseable future. EVF does not recognise neutral fencers but those fencers who fulfil the residency rules and have the support of the relevant national body may fence for the country in which they have residency. This applies to EVF Individual and Team Championships and all EVF Circuit Events.
