What were the reasons for the cancellation of the free shipping trip to the United States? / The strange condition of the Americans for a friendly struggle


According to the sports correspondent of Fars News Agency, Alireza Dabir, the president of the Wrestling Federation, sent an email to the United States announcing the cancellation of the friendly struggle and the non-travel to this country.

The American Wrestling Federation sent an email to Iran last night asking it to reconsider its trip and travel to the country with eight wrestlers.

The following are the reasons why a free ship does not travel to the United States:

1. According to the Iranian Wrestling Federation, this was a friendly invitation, not a World Cup that Iran would have to attend. The Wrestling Federation criticizes why the United States has issued visas to some members of the team and not issued visas to others.

۲. One of the reasons the Patrol Federation criticized the United States was the bad attitude of the embassy in Dubai into issuing visas, which at the same time led to protests by the president of the Wrestling Federation that the status of wrestling champions had not been preserved.

3. Another point is that this is a team-to-team friendly fight and it is not possible to send 8 wrestlers out of 10 weights. The competition is one-on-one and 10-person. The Wrestling Federation did not deny the visa ban. The Wrestling Federation believes that given Iran’s power in this field, why should it bow its head against the opponent?

4. Another point that our country’s wrestling federation criticized was that the United States had said that this friendly fight should be held with 3 kilos of grace and 29 hours after the weightlifting match, but the Iranian federation announced its protest in an email and said that such a thing is not possible. The American Wrestling Federation had said that it was requesting this because of the presence of its athletes in the Yarigin Cup and the reduction of pressure. According to the rules, weightlifting is usually held in the morning and the competition is held 3 hours later.

5. Another reason is that it takes a few days to travel to the United States due to the time difference for the athlete to adjust to the weather conditions, but with the action taken by the US Embassy, ​​the national wrestling team arrived in the United States the night before the race. Alireza Dabir held a meeting with the technical staff overnight before making a decision, and with their consent, announced the cancellation of the deployment.

According to Fars, Alireza Dabir had many challenges with the National Olympic Committee and the Ministry regarding maintaining the ship’s position, and he had raised the same issue in a letter to the American Federation. He stated that he was critical of the political confrontation over this friendly struggle and that he would not have sent the team to Dubai to obtain a visa if he had not been sent, but that the confrontation had led him to agree to the cancellation of the trip.
