Our stance is grounded in the understanding that, in accordance with the prevailing and applicable ISU rules, the consequences of a decision to penalize an individual athlete, such as Kamila Valieva in this case, cannot serve as the foundation for revisiting the outcomes of a team event. Our legal standpoint is founded, among other considerations, on existing precedents within the jurisprudence of the CAS.
