The Russian national kickboxing team is allowed to participate in all international WKF tournaments with the national flag and national anthem of the Russian Federation. First time in Moldova by the European Championships in June.

The previous representative of the WKF in the territory of the Russian Federation Gerasimov M.V. is removed from the previously held position and is relieved of all rights and obligations.
