An extraordinary meeting of the Directing Committee of the International Kurash Association was held today in the city of Termez, Uzbekistan.

The meeting was chaired by IKA President Haider Farman and was attended by vice presidents and members of the IKA Directing Committee from Asia, Africa, Europe and Pan America.

The members of the Directing committee discussed important issues of the development of Kurash on the world stage, including the participation of Kurash in various continental and regional Games.

The members of the Directing Committee expressed gratitude to the Government of Uzbekistan and personally to the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan and Honorary President of the IKA Shavkat Mirziyoyev for the constant and full assistance to the activities of the IKA on the international development of Kurash. Another evidence of this was the adoption in November 2020 of the Resolution of the President of Uzbekistan on the development of Kurash on the world stage.

The members of the Directing Committee decided to create a new post of vice-president of the IKA to interact with the motherland of Kurash - Uzbekistan. IKA President Haider Farman proposed to appoint Abdujabbor Abduvokhidov, Advisor to the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan, to this newly created position. Directing Committee members unanimously supported this proposal.
