Russia is an incredibly important country for our sport and we are sure that, with the President’s endorsement and support, it will continue to evolve rapidly over the coming years. “As we celebrate the 40th year of WTF, we can be hugely proud of the progress we have made. However, we know there is always more that can be done and we remain dedicated to ensuring that people from all over the world can enjoy and have access to taekwondo.” Russia recently demonstrated its growing passion for taekwondo by formally declaring an interest in Moscow, St. Petersburg and Kazan hosting WTF Taekwondo Grand Prix series over the next three years. |
