The Georgian Rugby Union decided to support Ukraine in the face of the threat of a full-scale invasion of the Russian Federation.

On the page of the Georgian national team on Instagram, the upcoming match of the European Championship against the Russian team was announced in Ukrainian. At the same time, the text of the publication was not duplicated in Georgian or Russian.. This caused outrage in the Russian Rugby Federation (RFR), which complained to the European Rugby Federation (Rugby Europe).

They allegedly asked the Georgian side to remove the poster, but clearly no one is in a hurry to do this.

" We were told that such publications are unacceptable, that this is a violation of the regulations. Rugby Europe asked the Georgian side to remove this poster, but so far they have not removed anything, even considering that they face a fine for this. Rugby Europe supports our stance on the inadmissibility of such publications,"

The duel between the rugby teams of Georgia and Russia will take place on February 27 at the stadium "
