"We have FILA commitments as the organizer of World Championship. We
are responsible for the security of all country wrestlers attending
the competition. Armenians are not ruled out in this context.
Armenia’s intention to bring 500 football fans for World Wrestling
Championship to be held in Baku has been reacted positively. They can
come," Vice-President of National Olympic Committee Chingiz Huseynzadeh
said in the press conference he held today, APA-Sport Agency reports.
He also stated that Armenian Wrestling Federation has not yet asserted
its joining the competition to be held in Baku for winning license
to World Championship.
"I think it is connected with psychological momentum. Armenians do not
believe that they will win victory in Baku. International Federation
gave its consent for Armenian wrestlers’ joining the tournaments for
winning license," he said.
The wrestlers who participate in 1/4 World Championship to be held in
Baku from September 23 till September 27 will win license to Beijing
Summer Olympic Games.
