TYUMEN, Mar 29, Alexander Govorov. President of the Russian Biathlon Union (RBU) Viktor Maygurov told reporters that Russia is open to different countries for joint cooperation. On Tuesday, the IBU Executive Committee suspended the membership of the RBU and the Belarusian Biathlon Federation in the organization with immediate effect amid the aggravation of Russian-Ukrainian relations. «In any case, we strive to develop biathlon in country, with the Belarusians, in fact, we have already agreed on cooperation. In general, we are open to everyone — be it European, North American, Asian countries. Yes, even African. At the same time, we understand that this is still more fantasy, «Maygurov said .
