The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has called on all United Nations (UN) member states to ensure the safe travel of athletes competing in the 2026 Milano Cortina Winter Paralympics.
This call was made following concerns over the increasing global conflict that could potentially hinder the participation of disabled athletes from various parts of the world in peaceful competitions.
In an official statement quoted in Jakarta on Wednesday, the IOC emphasized that sport must remain a beacon of hope amidst a world shaken by division and human tragedy.
