Add article description


The 2022 Judo Grand Slam Ulaanbaatar was held at the Steppe Arena in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, from 24 to 26 June 2022 as part of the IJF World Tour and during the 2024 Summer Olympics qualification period.[2][3][4][5] After the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, all of the other 31 Summer Olympic sports organizations other than the IJF have suspended Russian and Belarusian athletes from their competitions.[6] But IJF President Marius Vizer, a long-time close friend of Russian President Vladimir Putin, wanted instead to let Russians and Belarusians continue to compete as neutral athletes.[6] Ukraine boycotted the event because the Russian team was allowed to compete;[7][8] Russia entered 24 competitors in the competition.[7][8] Allowing Russians to compete went against the recommendation of the International Olympic Committee.[8]
