The International Olympic Committee will ask its members not to host events in Indonesia after banning Israeli athletes

In addition, the IOC “will recommend to all international federations not to host any international sporting events or meetings in Indonesia.”

Indonesia, the most populous Muslim country, does not have formal diplomatic relations with Israel, but FIFA says it has received assurances that its delegation will be welcome at the tournament.

Among the athletes unable to compete is defending world champion on floor, Artem Dolgubyat.

The 28-year-old won Olympic floor gold at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics and silver in Paris last year. He is also a two-time European champion.

The forum submitted a request to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) to take urgent interim measures to ensure Israeli participation, or to move or cancel the event, but this was rejected.

After its meeting this week, the IOC said it had also asked the Indonesian Olympic Committee and the International Sports Federation “to come to the IOC headquarters in Lausanne to discuss the situation that occurred.”

The IOC Executive Board added that it “seized the opportunity” at its meeting “to remind all stakeholders of the Olympic Movement of the importance of free and unrestricted access to the country in question for all participants to attend international competitions without restrictions.”
