Signing time started for the :ESP Spanish Federation.

 

Today, our parliament confirmed express nationality to :CUB Yulemnis Aguilar, currently #1 in the women's javelin toplist in 2024. She doesnt represent Cuba since like 5 years ago so there would be no problem, she will be in Paris.

 

 

Also, :ETH Likina Amebaw is waiting for the nationality. She has the Olympic Standar in women's 10.000metres and wants to go to Paris. Although her has a different route. She's married to an Spaniard apparently, so no need for the Parliament to get involved. But adminstrations are slow so if "organic" nationality doesn't arrive at time I count with the Goverment giving her an special excempt for the nationality as they did for Yulemnis.

 

 

And at last :BDI Rodrigue Kwizera is reportedly starting negotiations paperwork to ask for the nationality, He refused to go with his home country to the latest World Cross Country Championships. He was at Budapest in 2023 so at least until 2026 couldn't compete for the country. So there's no hurry with him.

 

 

 

 

Would there be any more before Paris or would they stop at 5 between the last 2 years? Who knows....

Twins Eugene and Jamie Omalla have completed their switch from :UGA Uganda to :NED The Netherlands and can compete in Paris if they're selected as part of the Dutch team. Especially Eugene can be a big addition for the relay, he broke the African indoor record earlier this year over 400m.

 

No shenanigans here by the way: born in the Netherlands (country of their mom), lived here for 7 years and then moved to Uganda (country of their dad), now they compete for Kansas State in the US.

    • hmm - aren't Australia and New Zealand the only nations that actually compete in the Oceania Cup?
    • If Australia and New Zealand earn quotas through Pro League, then does that mean 3rd placed team from Oceania Cup takes quota? 
    • Right now russians themselves metioned that they have 2 main options for women`s quota: - Peklecova will was not included into the international doping testing pool (RUSADA is still incompliant after that scandal) - D.Nepryaeva had training camps at the occupied territories - it is the best way to avoid of the international doping testing at all     P.S. Little detail - according to Vaelbe 90% of russian skiera are contracted with russian army or other security services.
    • We had no real problems with russians for a long time. It was a normal sport rivalry. It was common case that statues of russian politicians and poets remained in place even in the Western Ukraine which was joined by the Soviet Union much later. Lyskun was pro-Ukrainian according to her statement but she kept conctcts with her former coach. That coach moved to russia earlier and could do some brainwashing. I would say that the coach may have financial motivation to do this. By the way we had similar case with Bondar from Luhansk who moved to russia in 2014. What is really interesting - russians have a lot of resources but it took them 4 yeats to find someone relatively well-known in sport area to stage this propaganda performance.       Yes, this web-site is active and maintained. The list is beeing updated. But it is not an official goverment resource and it is operated by the non-goverment organization. It was created to draw attention of the national security services to the activities of some people and provide some initial foundations for further formal investigations.
    • AIN's will skipped (they got American visa too late) 2nd WC stage (but their could compete in 3rd WC stage) and, therefore, their chances to got more than 1 entry in OG have become lower, especially,  if their will not allow to compete in Sigulda (but after their participation in Poland's short-track WT stage, I won't give 100% chances for that).   Maybe problem with entries will be solved by itself)
    • You prefer matches in USA , look at that ...    Tourists to US would have to reveal five years of social media activity under new Trump plan to enter    https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/dec/10/tourists-social-media-trump
    • I would say - he did not share some part of "the profit" with someone from above )
    • Yeah, a complete failure all around. Only two individual quotas for men and two for women + mixed relay. Cortina looks like a big fat zero in the medal table tbh.
    • But yeah, as you said, their intention (if I have to guess) probably is to prevent Pan America from having 3 teams without going through the world oqt.  They were generous with the world cup qualification because it's in europe and with 16 teams but they won't be as much with their prime event.   Anyway, this doc is terribly written and could bring problems without an update.
    • IDK this seems like a big mistake on their part. They should have excluded Pan America from the first clause.    And also shoulda clarify if "highest placed" in the second statement means only champion or "highest placed not counting possible pro league qualified teams".
